I had to look up what a Dunlop valve is. Thanks Wikipedia:
The Dunlop valve, (also called a Woods valve, an English valve or a Blitz valve[1]) is a type of pneumatic valve stem in use—mostly on inner tubes of bicycles—in many countries, including Japan,[2] Korea, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, most European countries, and a number of developing countries. The Dunlop valve has a wider base than a Presta valve, similar enough in size to a Schrader valve to use identically drilled valve holes in rims,[3] but it can be inflated with a Presta valve adapter.[4]
Looks like the best global touring rim would have Schrader/Dunlop size valve stem holes... Do you have a drill with you...
Clearly the Malawisaurus is noted for its fat tail.
1 month agoYeah! We're cycle touring - too much food is rarely a problem!
1 month agoIt must have been lost (no trees around), joined us for dinner under the table.
1 month agoDid you manage to eat all that?

Might be a Bocage's tree frog

Yikes, we just shipped chains to our upcoming hotel in Spain, because the Spanish are weak on parts for our German bikes. But this problem pales beside your situation. Much empathy from us.

Looks like photos of rainbow skink.

Thanks! They sure look similar! Good to see folks are checking on me.
2 months agoHaha, it does look terrible! Salty, fatty chicken, yum?!
2 months agoConsiderably, but I think it's to make up for the hours of extra time it takes to pack it all away.
2 months agoYup, buffed now but not 'buff'.
2 months agoThanks Bill. These are African hunting Dogs. We were told they were rare to see 🤷🏼♀️

Yeah, they have a WhatsApp group and message/phone each other whenever they find something interesting

Could be a function of the cement they used :-)
1 month agoThere was another, bigger, statue in the roundabout. Don't think we took a photo, but I have a memory of that one having a wide grin. And odd colouring - the paint looks like it ran out around the belly.
