You did remember to remove the playing card?? 😝 But seriously, hope you found the problem!

Lol, we could have a Land Rover dedicated thread on this topic!! 😆 Replacing the clutch master cylinder on my Discovery which was going smoothly until I tried to bleed the system... Got the wife to depress the clutch pedal and I was working the bleed screw... Nothing... couldn't get it to firm up. Call a mate over to help (because the wife has had enough)... Hours later, now dark, I turn to the workshop manual... Which tells me because of the angles of the pipes etc, the front of the vehicle needs to be jacked up so the air moves out the system! 🙄 5 min later the clutch was bled and working 100%! 🤣 You need a sense of humour to be a Land Rover owner...

My current favourite and now my desktop background... Taken yesterday evening - Impromptu picnic sunset supper on Llandudno beach on a near perfect Cape winters evening... In a way, it would have been cool if my daughter wasn't in the shot, 'cos then my son would have looked like he was walking into some fiery portal... 😆

He looked like he was heading for a podium before one of those darn Canadian Pines just jumped in front him! 😄 Bet he was glad it was padded! 😬

Watching the racing over the weekend and my 8 year old son is watching with me. He looks at podium presentation after the men's short course race and says, "Dad, why do they give them flowers? Why don't they give them something useful... Like a beer?" 🤣🍻

It is a fantastically clever design... 👍 Need to upgrade my plastic groove tool for the aluminum one now... 😃 Well done Ryder!

Hmm, somewhere in this situation is a new take on the old dad joke "Q: How do you make a Swiss Roll? A: Push him down the mountain!" 🤣

Alan's strategy does seems to be improving with every ride - remember how he shot off into the lead in Brazil only to get caught, passed and dropped and compare it to this race. Brilliant stuff! Awesome to see him split seconds off winning both this weekends races! 🙌

I think you should go back, find that dog, adopt it and then name it Terminator! 😆 Dang, it just kept coming after you!!

Looks awesome! Where is this? Love the fact that all you can see are mountains - no roads or towns in the background!

Whoaa! 80's flashback big time!! I had a near identical one (I even remember those hand grips!), although cable brakes at the back and I had red aluminum pedals. And then the red tyres... I remember having a blue set of tyres as well at one point, but they just weren't as cool as the red... 😄

This might help though...

Lol, true story! My son (8) will often tease his sister (11) and then she'll role her eyes and look at my wife and I and say, "Remember when it was just the 3 of us?" to which I will look at my wife and say, "Remember when it was just the 2 of us??"... And sometimes she'll answer, "No, I can't remember anything BC!" (Before Children) 😄 Congrats JJ - Fatherhood is an amazing journey, savour every moment... because one minute they drinking from a bottle and in nappies, the next they're trying to reason with you why they need a cellphone! 😆

Just a quick spin up Tokai this morning, but the sun trying to force it's way through the low clouds created some amazing scenes...

Done!

My wife and I just finished The Lincoln Lawyer on Netflix. The trailer didn't grab my attention but then, out of interest to see what it would select, I hit the 'Surprise Me' button on the app and it chose that so we gave it a try. Ended up really enjoying it. Clearly Netflix's algorithms work! 😄

There are lots of Mr Chops out there... You gotta be so careful though, Mr Chops ego is a very fragile but his metal cage less so... He can end up with a small dent in his bumper, you end up mangled in ICU.

When I was commuting everyday by bike (which was nearly 20 yrs ago! 😬) I used a two piece Oxford rainsuit. It was a definite step up from the rubberised rainsuit you used to be able to get from Cape Union Mart etc. and, with no hood and velcro straps etc, didn't flap in the wind etc. Kept me dry on the ride from the northern suburbs to the southern suburbs on the pouring Cape winter days. I see Oxford stuff is still available...

Driving through Kleinmond last weekend I thought I saw signs indicating a mtb trail... Does anyone know if there one?

Enjoyed some lekker rides up the Hemel & Aarde valley this weekend. I tried the 'Trail Park' section in the bluegum forest for the first time. Very cool! 3 different style routes down and a lekker single track climb back up.

https://www.cycleworld.com/story/motorcycle-news/kawasaki-bex-rideable-robot-goat/ When you're an enduro rider and want to be a mountain goat but don't have the skills of the likes of Taddy Blazusiak or Chris Birch... this is the Kawasaki for you! 🤣

And in his defense, he was in a Land Rover... Maybe he was braking?? 😝

Like this?? 😝
