grant10 Posted January 5, 2012 Share That looked amazing! Hugely envious and an awesome group of dudes to ride with. Nice one, as EigerSA said above, what cycling is all about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted January 5, 2012 Share Thanks for a great read. Your tour includes some of my favorite rides (Robinson, Swartberg, Hell, Anysberg...) but I'll never dream of stringing them together like you did. Respect to you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted January 5, 2012 Share Thanks, great adventure and nice pics as well. No details how the bikes faired, all went well? Guess you packed the essential spares and tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanninja Posted January 6, 2012 Share Kosmonooit we had almost zero mechanicals. 1 x flat tire, with a mini sidewall. One of the bikes had a cassette and chain replaced 2/3rds in, but this was due for replacement before the trip already. As we are not riding hard and there is limited single track on the trip, the bikes were great, but here is a short list of spares that we carry: 1. deraileur hangers2. shift and brake cables3. plugs and sealant 4. crank bolts 5. cable ties6. duct tape with duct tape and cable ties, you can always make a plan.
