throttles Posted March 23, 2023 Share 4 hours ago, The Ouzo said: Loadshedding on the bike this morning. Forgot to charge my devices. So 10 minutes into the ride the headlight goes into power save mode. at least I can be seen from the front, but its useless for me to see anything. At 5am there is not much ambient light about. Luckily I know the route so well that I know where every pothole, crack and dip in the tar is. And then 9km before home the Garmin battery dies. Unacceptable sir.. We NEED PICHAS!!

ChrisF Posted March 23, 2023 Share Last couple of days just recovery rides on Zwift .... followed by an aqua session in a "cool pool". (thank goodness the pool is not "cold" yet) Apparently the cold water is supposed to assist with the recovery .....

NotSoBigBen Posted March 24, 2023 Share The last ride with my boet before they went back yesterday. Been a privileged 3 weeks of riding with him almost every day! He specifically wanted it to be a '3 speed' ride... I invited another singlespeed fan who was an ex 'PPL pilot' mate of his he hadn't seen in years. mecheng89, DJR, devvydoesdonuts and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveno7 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Just before taking the bike for a much needed service...a quick spin around the usual area...actually need to find some new routes...very muddy but still good fun and then the sun appears...a bike is a saviour at times...gives you space to do a bit of thinking...
