Tell us more about that bike. Are you doing huge km's?

Nothing fancy at all. Standard road bike with a darn carbon fork, 3x9 SLX crank with 11-36, XT duals, XT RD and a chain from Kiwi.  (They last!) Schwalbe marathon tires lined with Gatorskins, 32 spokes on Ultegra hubs with Open Pro rims, Mary bar with Ergo grips and suspension stem, Murray saddle with suspension seatpost, modified tri bar to "sleep-ride", Solar chargers 500mA and 300mA, 20000 Ma power bank, (Have enough power for a week 24/7) Magishine light, Thule rack unloaded for minimalistic travels. I have one of my saddlebags but it does not fit under the carbon fiber on the saddle.

 

Comfy, very comfy. I have a Ciocc and a Superfly but this is definitely my bike of choice.

 

Kms....as much as I can when the body allows.

How did I miss this?

 

You in my neck of the woods

Nope. On my way to the Transkei but was blown backwards and ended up at Heavenly Pancakes.

Second comeback ride after pneumonia. Nothing spectacular just a ride out on the farmroads from Benoni to Pretoria and back. Also wonderful to ride with the rest of the green Pyga's.

Wonderful feeling being on the trails again. Going to be hard work getting back.

Gotta love this cycle path,but still there are guys taking on the traffic on the dual carridgeway.The mind boggles

Worst cycle path ever. What that picture doesn't show is the 50knot South Easter directly in your face!!!

Around what time was that?

I was there early morning and those cows were there with one having pushed its head thru the fence to nibble

9h00. The solo cow on the wrong side of the fence appeared to be trying to find a way to get back to the heard. Shame. Not an easy task if you can't remember where you exited the fence initially.
