  3. John Swanepoel of Karoorak has a trailer that can take about 30 bikes. He is at MtbAfrica . He designed his trailer not sure who build it
  4. Just my experience on old vs new after owning and running a tiny shop in the sticks for 8 years. If you are visiting, touring through or doing Freedom Challenge and is using older tech we make plans to keep you going if having a mechanical. If on electronics you wait for the courier to deliver.
  5. Not sure what you are looking for ? you say no bikepacking but want a bike that can carry weight? I have build a touring bike for a customer from scratch so if you are more specific I may be able to offer a few tips
  6. In my humble view a gravel being bike being more road bike than mtb 2 x is the solution . I find the GRX 46/30 with 11-34 on my Topstone perfect . 2 x 10 being as inexpensive as bicycle parts can get
  7. Don’t move to Prince Albert allready too many people here to my liking 😇
  8. Were you on a Revolt ? Saw you on Saturday morning riding back to town
  9. No . No tracks . We just ride the dirt roads . We have a local who is trying to build a track between running a guest house and a restaurant. The rest of us are old geezers who are just trying to stay upright.
  10. Thank you enjoying all the feedback and views.
  11. As someone who started the wonderful life of being a cyclist some 36 years ago and obviously then on a road bike my passion for road bikes and road riding still exceeds the one for mountain bikes. First forced to switch to mountain biking for road safety reasons when I lived in cities and now because of where I live I find the looks of a combination of the two ( gravel bikes ) very sexy . So browsing through the adds for gravel bikes this morning just looking ..I have one .. and seeing the number of really nice gravel bikes for sale made me wonder why are these bikes for sale . Are guys upgrading or disillusioned with what they found riding gravel riding to be ? Looking forward to some responses. Arno
  12. I still don’t understand that move of his and am a fan of him

  15. This from a 76 year old who has been cycling for almost 40 years . postpone the scan and do another test in 3 or 4 months time . Lots of factors influencing the count . scan will be inconclusive and then you will be sent for a biopsy . pse levels go up with age but it is your health your decision
  16. Man would I love to be part of the party knocking on that drivers front door returning his mirror to him .
