Sitting@89, this reminds me a lot of the 75 Hard challenge. Have you looked into that? https://andyfrisella.com/blogs/realaf-podcast/14-75hard-a-tactical-guide-to-winning-the-war-with-yourself

What ever happened to contraband? they were local if im not mistaken https://community.bikehub.co.za/features/_/gear/reviews/review-contraband-rogue-single-speed-r1185

Rented some skinny wheels in france. Sault to Mont Ventoux. The "easier" (Is any uphill easy?) but longer route to the top. The downhill as FUN! We also did a 56km loop around Sault through the lavender feilds the day before. Sault -> Aurel -> Saint-Trinit -> Saint-Christol -> Simiane-la-Rotonde -> Sault.

What frame do you have?

Well, Tommy D had the same issue, and still won the Giro.

Hmm, yeah not many around. Have you thought about a bike trailer?

They sponsor a top CYCLING team - attracting customers that CYCLE. Would expect some extra care when said customer makes use of their service with their bike.

Removed the jockey wheels to clean the gunk out before race day, stripped the thread when putting it together, ended up with a small bolt throught the cage to get race done. A side note: never do maintenance on your bike the day before a big ride or race. Putting engine oil on a chain. - Not a good idea, did this as a kid though

Ja its not the TDF - where he was meant to peak

New tekkies. Schwalbe Moto-X 27.5x2.4 (measures 58mm wide on these rims). Just clears the frame - which I think was actually built for 26" wheels. Is this allowed on here? They sort of have knoblies, just flat ones Basically I'm only on bike paths on my short commute of which only about 500m on a gravel bike path through the park.

Wiggle wiggle wiggle.
