Where has your bike taken you today?

Went to Durban to get a nearly new car for the wife as the fuel costs and changes to income made this necessary 

after a week of surfing I decided to take 5 days to get home - day 2 saw me break my hanger when my bike blew over  in a bizarrely gentle fall into soft grass

no spare which is just stupid and so my fun ends and I’m heading home 

Worse I spent the last week eating like I was about to ride 500km in 5 days 

Are my eyes deceiving me or is that hanger made from ceramic?

I actually can’t work it out - the curve ones are soft and I broke 2 so Benky sent me 3 that he had laser cut so I’m assuming metal

7075 aluminum is the answer

Much better than ceramic/plastic.  It should bend before it snap clean off.

I have thought of one for when I retire, but I think the winters must be harsh…could be a cheap way of living though..

But where will you park your bikes and bicycles?

Will need to rent a shed somewhere…to my lads house.

 

bicycles come on board to go into towns with and explore.

Wow, pretty place, pity about the mechanical...great idea though! Would this have included the TK? or the long way home?

A late afternoon ride on Thursday after the rain had cooled things down. View from the vineyards towards Stellenbosch

Long way home avoiding TK which I really don’t like

It is. We were also lucky with the weather I think. It was high teens low twenties for most of the ride.
