Where has your bike taken you today?

[Twaatie]

Round the point on my new chair. Yes It's a Liv but I could not give one ounce of a f%&k. It came free on my fiance's bike and it works for me. The saddle I had on previously felt like a cactus after 40km.

Little spelling correction please: It should be a "kaktus" saddle

Today was AMAZING out on the road. Very few cars and almost no cyclists. I think the impending rain (which went away quite quickly) scared most off.

 

Yesterday it was Tokai on the Reign. That bike is feeling AMAZING now with the Fox Float on. Put a little more air in and slowed the rear down a bit. Bike feels so solid coming off lips now. No more trying to correct the bucky suspension with body position. For smooth jeeptrack I'm locking out the rear. For more rocky jeeptrack and uphill single track I'm running it in trail. For the downs I'm letting the oil flow.

I guess you can "Liv" with that since it was a freebie. ????????

here's another bulk post of the last couple weeks...

 

A drenching Cradle spin the weekend before this one that's just passed

 

 

 

 

Then a detour through Hobby Park for sunrise on my commute to work on the public holiday last Wednesday

 

Then back to the Cradle on Saturday to spend some time with the ever friendly tri's again

 

 

Was nice to eventually see some blue sky while on the super fun Cradle MTB loop again.

As a general rule I don't ride on Mondays but woke up and it was such a clear crisp Highveld morning decided to take a spin up to the quarry near Meredale south of Jozi, was well worth it [emoji3]

Reminds me of the Cosmos in JHB, one of the few things I do miss.

Old Green Monster Hercules took D to campus today..........and promptly had a rear tyre explode, I suppose it was the shock of finding itself at UCT. The last time it took Ds grandfather to class, it was at Stellies, in the late 1950s, Poor thing, I would have blown a tyre too! D also discovered that those old rod-pull brakes don't slow you down in the least when it rains. So, he learnt what it feels like to get wet and walk home. Boy is getting to be a tough man!

I suppose the fact that it is so beautiful will have to justify its existence. It is the original that came with the bike in the late 1920s.

 

On the other hand, it works better than the brakes, making a good bit of noise. The brakes don't even screech to warn pedestrians. It can also be argued that in the wet, ringing the bell is an equally effective way to slow down, compared to using the brakes. Both have about the same effect on your speed.   

 

That bike is a terrifying thing to ride, both up and down a hill.
