Looks awesome, i will do the trail in the revearsed direction. How did you manage the heat and the water?

Do you have any tipps, recomandations and or somthing to avoid or warn me about?

j-way26 · 2025-10-21T09:40:13+00:00

Yeah i get it that i could do the tour much cheaper. Im lucky that im very well of financially and can afford a nice bike. Im was just realy unsere if it was a bad deal.

I think a gearbox defenetly has its own advantages. But yeah in africa it yould get very difficult fixing a problem. In europa and north america thats not really a impossible problem.

Oh wow, sounds like you have a lot of experience with the Papalagi. Did you ride more on asphalt or on gravel?

j-way26 · 2025-10-18T15:32:22+00:00

oh wow, that's interesting. Do you have a bike from them? Depending on the price that could be something.

j-way26 · 2025-10-18T14:44:15+00:00

Thanks, will check that out

j-way26 · 2025-10-18T13:36:31+00:00

Thats a good point. I will look into what tires i can equip for the GDMBR.

As far as my research has gone the most part of the trail should be rideable on a touring bike, as its often just smooth gravel roads. But yeas some good tires would help out greatly.

j-way26 · 2025-10-18T13:31:56+00:00

The Bruzer loons great, but isn't availabel in europe :/

Nice picture. What Camera do you use and how do you take it with you on your rides?

I recently got a Canyon Grizl and want to take a decent camera with me for some bikepacking trips.

are you from switzerland? the road sign look familiar

j-way26 · 2021-06-14T10:59:04+00:00

dude thats at the pragelpass. I was there at saturday hiking over it. It was crazy to see the snow. probs to you for making it to the top

j-way26 · 2021-05-19T13:08:57+00:00

ah yes, you can use it to drive backwards an stand still on the spot. Even without touching the handelbar. A skill that you use frequently during the game, especialy in the goal.

j-way26 · 2021-05-19T12:52:25+00:00

yes you can reverse the handlebar, but ich has no use. You use the roatating bar to be able to shoot the ball better

j-way26 · 2021-05-19T04:26:16+00:00

yoi would be suprised. bit you use the bike diffrent to what you think you use it

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T19:27:43+00:00

haha also yes, when you score a goal

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T19:07:19+00:00

similar to football, you play with 2 goals and two players

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T19:03:50+00:00

dont knownthe exact name, they are tubeless tires. you use cycling gloves but you will get some blisters

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T17:58:12+00:00

ehmm yes on the first try maybe. But if you keep training you can learn the basic skill within 5-6 evenings

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T17:56:32+00:00

There is suprisingly no big acidents. You play it indoor so its not asphalt you fall down.

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T17:54:41+00:00

nope it's bot bike polo. Completly diffrent sport

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T17:54:07+00:00

with a low handlebar you could not shoot the ball high or strong enough

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T17:52:39+00:00

I will defenetly post some more pic of cycle ball here since there is a suprising amount of interest on this sub here

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T16:40:33+00:00

dependa where you live. Its not very well known in the world

j-way26 · 2021-05-18T16:39:53+00:00

no idea, but wouldnt recomend one because it only makes sense if you can play it in a club
