Here is a cattle grid out in the outback ... rather pointless at the time as the floods had wiped out the fences.

For interest's sake, these are the reports I got from the LBS when the bike had its first service in 2024.

Thinking about this. I have previously asked for a diagnostic report after its first service, and they were reluctant to give it to me. Apparently, Bosch does not like them doing that; well, that is what I was told, so I suspect my chances are slim this tme around.

Would it be correct to say that the display features are native to a Garmin head unit?

I find my Wahoo Trackr is effective with vehicles. However, with bicycles I would estimate a 99% non-dection rate. I do ride shared paths frequently where there are many cyclists, and it rarely detects them. So, in my experience, a failure on that aspect. Mind you, I have no credible evidence of...

Have you had the service? I am just curious as to what that entails (in particular related to the motor and electrics).

I must admit that I am in two minds. On one hand, I just would like it sorted, and I can have my bike back. On the other than as a law student, where one of my lecturers (professor) encourages us to engage in a legal action before we graduate (this would be in a small claim tribunal where you...

Nothing from the dealer as yet.

My Riese and Muller Supercharger was out of warranty by one month when I was in the early days of a tour. The first night, I had problems charging the battery, but it eventually charged after a bit of fiddling. I thought it might have been able to resolve the problem, and it had, and continued...

As it is in Australia, it would be kilometres, so 100 km is about 60 miles IIRC.

Congratulations. What was the race?

My MY23 has PowerTube 625 verticals installed, for what it is worth.

There are videos on changing Gates belts, just not specific to R&M. Maybe look at those and see if you can go from there?

Well, I signed up for my/our first gravel race, the "Yes You Canola" as part of the Ballidu Gravel series. First race for my son who will be joining on his analogue bike, so went for the mid-range ride, 44 km. Should be fun.

Well, I decided to give a Chinese USB-powered pump a second go and have just received a CycPlus AS2 Ultra, which hopefully lives up to its AU$192 price. The reviews are positive; now comes the real-world experience.
