Dankie Bud. Ek het eers parafien gebruik maar die manne sê dit beskadig blykbaar die ketting. Sal diesel nie ook nie?

Ek gebruik dit al jare op my offroad bikes en het nog nie probleme gehad nie. Diesel vreet nie plastiek, gom etc. soos petrol nie.

Nee doner, ekt prentjies gekyk tot by p2 en toe self lus gekry vir daai groen veld. Ek sal maar weer kom lees in Maart, dan het ons seker al reen gehad.

ps. daai is darem 'n netjiese draad ou Mater. Ekt ook al 'n paar skaaphonne laat stof vreet van die skoeter af.

Vandag eers gaan kyk toe die manne die lusern weglaai. Baal al heel week en dis warm kerels! Maar dit was die moeite werd gewees: my skuur staan nou amper vol bale.

Kyk hoe mooi aangetree is daai lusernsoldatjies:

Hy noem mos juis vir JMUIS "Ou Bees". Ek wonder of hy dit nou heeltemal verloor het?

I bought bicycle panniers from chainreactioncycles and then found a small black bag to put on the seat too. R300 in total, i then inserted polycarbonate into the backing to make them a bit more rigid!

Dorsland · « **Reply #114 on:** June 01, 2014, 11:31:29 am »

Very neat idea and at a fraction of the cost of a set of bike panniers. I think I should arrange a vist to a cycle shop sometime.

Die naweek gou my lentelam ooie deurgery. Die Bushlandertjie verbaas my elke keer as ek agter oppie plaas met hom ry. Dis baie klipperig en dele van my paaie is nogal verspoel met baie los klippe. Maar hy klouter daar uit soos 'n ribbok

Nice, wish I had so much grazing left AND a barn full of lucerne.....

Dorsland · « **Reply #118 on:** June 30, 2014, 03:56:11 pm »

How's the veld looking for you guys DB?

DeepBass9 · « **Reply #119 on:** June 30, 2014, 04:07:20 pm »

Its in a state of flux. I have been slowly improving it over the past year or 2. I have about 6Ha of smutsfinger, and took about 2t of hay from it this year which I am using now. 1Ha of sericea lezpedeza that I planted last year which is not properly established yet, and 8Ha I am busy preparing for a bit of lucerne, more sericea and smutsfinger. I am leasing from next month my neighbour's weed patch of poplar, khakibos and various other weeds which will take me through the winter in terms of roughage, but for the rest its buying either pellets or lucerne bales. Next year though when the lucerne and sericea is established it should be a lot better.

I'm using meadow lambing lick as a supplement, quite cheap compared to some of the others: http://www.meadow.co.za/Regions/Natal/News/Articles/Article25.htm#26
