Hi all
So this weekend, I returned to the Groot Marico to visit the folks and do some Qhubeka-ing (cycling the Buffalo bicycle, with intermittent moment of having to get off and push up some of the more steep, rocky hills). The great news is that our wife/mother/back-up driver, Maggie, has been lured out of the car and onto a bicycle.
Maggie, out of the car and out on the bike.

A Bicycle is not vulgar when wheeled out of the garage, and soon becomes sparkling in its rapidity. Yet whoever mounts it, man or woman, reveals something disgraceful, that of human being reduced to mechanical object, with a caricatural movement of the legs, Too bad!”

Mode of Transport
Qhubeka bike – solid steel, single speed, pedal-back brake and no suspension
Why?
