samson99 Posted January 11, 2019 Share I think all rides for the year however I think you could set it up as having multiple stages. I created it as 1 stage for the year so all rides for 2019 however I don't know whether this was the best option. Thanks Zub.Maybe we can make it a stage per month? Thank you for the initiative and effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flemish Lion Posted January 11, 2019 Share Damn yesterday was interesting on my commute home... I tried to beat the incoming Joburg storm... roads were still dry so I didn't change into my cycling clothes to save time... thunder and lightening around... as I was 500m into my ride the rain came down hard and 1 second between lightening and thunder... I got so wet that when I got home I walked into the shower with my clothes on samson99, cat-i, militarac and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate panniers. I carry pretty much the same as you on my commutes (35 km) and yes the bag needs to be rinsed out due to sweat but I feel that panniers stuffs up my centre of gravity.
