    That odd useful tool in the toolkit

    50xm5 bolt with the bead cut off. Used most often. Frequently loaned out, and copied by each person who sees it being used. Can you guess what it is used for?

    COURIER CHOICE G

    I use pudo.co.za frequently. It saves me sitting here and waiting for the courier to arrive. I can go drop off the parcels at a nearby locker, at a time that suits me. At R50 a parcel, its a bargain. Operated by The Courier Guy. Get the Pudo app on your phone.

    EC BASH 2023 - Doringkloof Baviaans.

    This year, my group will probably take the side-entry from Kareedouw. incidentally, Trygve Roberts has opened his page to that route on his Mountain Passes website, to non-subscribers, for a day or two, for free. see...

    5 Days, 5 bikes, CT to Die Hel & back

    Book through Marinette and Pieter Joubert at Fontein Guest Farm. They have several different options from cottages to camping. The Safari Bush Camp sleeps 8 and you should try to fill it on weekends. We had a full 8 but then 2 late cancellations unfortunately.

    5 Days, 5 bikes, CT to Die Hel & back

    My 4th time this year. In March, it was just a bit sandy. Early June, it was a bit sandier, but fun. Late June, it was freshly graded, like a highway. This time it still looked graded, but had some time to collect a bit of sand in a few places.

    I love the Anlas Capra-X for their handling on dirt and tar. Low mileage but then the price was low enough to replace them frequently. When I needed to replace my rear tyre and could not find another, I fitted an AX41. Better mileage and good handling, but not as good as the Capra-X. When the...

    Source for Lithium Bike Batteries Wanted

    Good to see that they actually publish the capacity. 60 Watt-hours is good enough. Not great, but enough. That is usually the shortcoming of LiFePo4 batteries. Though they can deliver huge power (Amps), the amount of energy that they store (Ah or Wh) is usually very low. Wh is Ah multiplied...

    Gamka's Kloof

    Verskoon die Engels maar my Afrikaans is te vrot. I have taken three groups into Die Hel so far this year, one in March and two in June. Going again 6-10 October.
