Bike tools tend to be lighter weight than car tools, makes them easier to carry. Find a ring spanner that fits the wheels hub nuts, and one that can adjust the saddle, handlebars, etc. But the tyre levers and puncture kit are a must have in my book. Maybe learn how a puncture is repaired before you need to do it on the road.

I had a set of 3 tyre levers, plus a puncture repair kit with various size patches and glue. Used to ride on gravel tracks a lot, surprising the number of punctures I got. If we were going on a long trip, I’d carry a spare inner tube as well. If your wheel hub nuts are not quick release, carry spanners to suit as well. Of course you need a pump to re-inflate a repair.
Puncture repair kit, and a set of cycle tools. When I was cycling I never left home without the ability to repair a puncture and get back. You won’t regret having them on hand.
Thanks for the update, we’ll book a slot on-line.
Isn’t the centre by Placemakers in Kerikeri operating? I’m ready for another booster, was planning on going there.
Still very sore this am, put antiseptic cream on before bed as well. It’ll be OK, know to put the little fellow on a plant if it happens again ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I think you’re right, the marks are like tiny pin pricks, and given it was on my arm for a while, I ended up with lots of them. Good observation, thanks.
I didn’t know they would do that either, it wasn’t that I felt it happening at the time, only afterwards.
Just mowed the grass and picked up a passenger in the process. It was a small green NZ Praying Mantis who I felt crawling around in the crook of my arm. Didn’t want to harm it, so left it there crawling around while I kept on mowing. Eventually it departed before I’d finished, but when I came indoors I discovered the little monkey had bitten me a number of times which was becoming sore. Didn’t feel it when I was working.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Went out to a friends for lunch which was great.
Hope everyone had a nice day 🍸💚
We’re cooking too. Recently started on a weekend free electric plan, that’s free from 9:00-17:00 on Sat & Sun. Baked lots to freeze ready for the week ahead, plus did all the weeks washing.
I was amazed to hear about the pre-pay fuel pumps not working due to the date.
