Africa Bike Prep

Me and a couple of dudes preped and packed all 15 bikes for my Africa trip. Were talkin high quality machines here, so the greatest of care was taken while packing. Let the following pictures serve as a record of dilligency.

You've gotta make sure the pedals are tight. I'd recommend torquing to beyond sanity levels. Notice the 3' cheater bar.

Drywall Screws make for the most secure tire attachment.


We treated this one with "kids Gloves" you can never be too careful in Africa. We got some tubes donated, and I shit you not they are probably Cobra bite proof!


All in days work, I can't wait to cobble all these things back together beneath the equatorial sun, while suffering from a travel hang-over.
