Big jobs

First, weight the back of the bike

In terms of the mechnicals of the bike, this was the big one. Angelika (pillion rider par exellence and now co-mechanic supreme) and I put the new tubeless tyres on the new tubeless rims and replaced the 'old' tubed wheels with the new ones. That's easier to say than to do. But we did it in one long day in Dave's garage. It was the last main challenge in the bike preparation.

We're both rather pleased with ourselves. It means that, should we need to change a tyre in the bush, we know we can.

Then take the new wheel...

Well, we're doing our best!
