    Quick Release helmet clips

    Can anyone tell me where I can buy these clips locally in Cape Town?  Helmet manufacturers don't supply them for obvious reasons, but they should be available for other uses....

    Cape Town Toy Run 2013 - Your thoughts or feedback?

    This thought crossed my mind as well on the day, but my pillion said the whole idea is riding in a group and sort of talked me into staying. Next time I am doing exactly what you did! I'll drop my toys early and wait for everyone else to arrive.

    Cape Town Toy Run 2013 - Your thoughts or feedback?

    I did the Toy Ride again yesterday and was wondering why no-one ever gives feedback on the ride, the highlights and lowlights? The weather was perfect, but the route I think needs to be changed. That last stop-ride-stop-ride in Wynberg killed my enthusiasm. Man, and the bikes!! I wonder how...

    Introspection after lane split fender bender

    In my whole riding career I have only once clipped a mirror. On that day I realized the force on the handlebar can be significant enough to swing you off balance. Had I been standing that day, the effect would have been worse and the results even more. For me standing in traffic has always been...

    I filled in "Adventure"

    Cruizaman, no offense! I am sure that a cruiser has it uses, but to me the only difference between the two is that the GS can go where the cruiser goes but the cruiser cannot always go where the GS goes. As for copying the report. I spend quite some time getting the post written and editing...

    Maslov's reason behind traveling on a bike

    Dogs, I am a newbie so I am not sure if I am allowed to just link to my trip report that I did on my blog? Duplicating it is rather a tedious process, considering that I took about a whole day to write the report on my blog with photo-editing, etc. Anyway,  myself and Jacobsroodt took a ride to...

    Rumbux Pannier Racks for 800GS

    I also like the fact that they are symmetrical. That means on the other side one can maybe fit a fire extinguisher or toolbag on the inside. Looking from the sides they blend in with the bike's shape and one barely sees them.

    How's this for lane splitting!

    I'm here in Uganda at the moment. Just heard from our Security Advisor that there are on average 10 boda-boda deaths per day in Uganda. He heard it from our company doctor who heard it from a another doctor. So, I guess that is unofficial stats which might have some truth in it. I am trying to...

    The inconvenient truth about Namibian Gravel Roads

    All Myself and Jacobsroodt just had a log chat about the whole tour, what had led to everything and what happened there at the crash and afterwards. Both of us were to blame for decisions taken after the crash, which I can say now was mostly because of miss-communication rather than poor...
