So the accepted formula for the amount of bikes you should own is N + 1, this we agree!

 

Having research this and found it to be extremely accurate but not altogether achievable or sustainable due to the increasing cost of compliance, I thought that surely similar formulae exist for other facets of cycling...my research has found that the same formula exists for footwear...

 

Having deduced this, I now present to you for your eye-ball feasting, my latest attempt at compliance and effort to engage the retro facet of my personality (albeit not a large one but never-mind, the formula does not choose your predilection, it is omnipotent) :

Those remind me so much of the first cycling shoes I ever used, they were my dads old shoes and the "cleat" for the tow hook pedals was nailed to the wooden sole of the shoe.

 

Really cool

I am jealous - so I'm going to be nasty - time to clean your handlebar tape.  It looks tacky with those pristine shoes - and the pretty Giant

 

Sies man!!

Nope, just found it less suitable than I would have liked. Mine where never noisy, I had 2 of them.

 

My current solution is just more cost effective, no need to have 2 full sets of everything. The expensive stuff can simply move from bike to bike, but each one can have all their cheap stuff.

 

I found “hiding” things away easier and neater with straps.

Reme would you mind posting close up pics of how you strap the tube etc down please. I've all of a sudden this weekend also decided to take off the saddle bag because it doesn't look so nice, although it's practical to put everything in there.

Nice shoes.

 

How about you take the leg warmers off though?

I remember that guy. Holy ****. Throwback to around 2011 maybe early 2012. The guy was weird man. 

Rode with him once in a group and it didn't go well.

I remember that ride. Think I stil did one with him at Kings Kloof.

Joe or something I think. Except for his shaving preferences he was lekker laid back.
