Benky - he has the experience without too many races in his legs - thanks Covid!!

In the case of the Shimano chain I have - writing on the outside of the chain.

Double check that your chain is the right way around before you replace half your drive train looking for a creak. It saves time as well as a big dose of humble pie.

And Axel is investigating yet uncharted portions of Ntsikeni. :-) I thought he would have seen the lights by now, but clearly not.

And Mike is storming. I see the Greaves pair left with him from Ntsikeni - I wonder how long they will last. He is a scary animal on the charge.

And they are off - that's me done for the next "n" days as I am glued to the dots.

RIP Johann - a great man, and mad about the Freedom challenge.

Don't you want to meander off and ruin another thread - this one was doing quite well without you? Or just keep on banging away on one of the others you have already ruined - but I really enjoy the bull dust being dished out here, and don't want it ruined as well.

Astounding achievement - and the weather certainly never played ball!!

Yes, I have used them for a couple of years and very happy with them.

Did you ever get a response - can you share it with us?

Prune juice wouldn't be easier??

Has anybody tried a 29er on Venters bike rack? I have seen it with a 26er and it worked well- I neglected to test it with my bike

Distance, speed (or in my case, lack thereof) - what are you after?

On the weekend my wife was riding along the spruit and spotted two boys riding without helmets. Knowing we had some old ones at home she stopped them and got their details (sounds like a stalker...) and said she would drop the helmets off with them. She then discovered that the helmets were a 'little' old and needed new inners. After phoning a number of the local bike shops and comparing prices she eventually trundled off to Linden. Once she explained what she wanted the inners for, they suggested she throws the old helmets away and produced two new ones for the boys. This was totally unsolicited and she is not a regular customer at all - just a 'stranger' in the shop. It certainly ensures that I will now need to drive a little further and make Linden my LBS - this really was an unselfish act of kindness!! :clap: :thumbup:
