The Man Cupboard

 I wrote once about my ‘man drawer’ in Stirling . . . here in Stellenbosch there is a ‘MAN CUPBOARD’

Spare tubes, mp3 player, gangster head phones,  multiple pairs of glasses, rain jacket (not yet used !),  random zip ties, saddle bags, Co2 bombs, allen keys, tape and lots of lube …. you can never have enough lube !

Helmet pod, Yonkershoek pass, helmets, tennis balls, tape, markers, sun screen and Vanilla Chai tea . . . . it’s all about the Chai Tea !

Lucozade Gels, Carb and Protein Recovery sachets, Chocolate energy bars (scientifically proven to taste good), Crampfix salts, emergency milk, old school excercise wheel, emergency torch and radiator paint (although there are no radiators in the house)

Cleaning rags, used tubes, tubes, used tyres and tyres  . . . . never throw tyres away, I don’t know why, just don’t !

 

1 pair of Dan Hugo’s shorts  (in case he comes around ’shortless’). 1 clear bag of cycling bits (mostly used stuff that can’t get throw out just in case), 1 emergency packet of semolina and 1 bottle of Moby Dick Rum - the rum is multi purpose emergency fluid - maybe for cleaning, maybe add some to the rag and use as a torch;  add some to the semolina (?); maybe you could use it as lube if the lube runs out (the lube has never run out) ; its also good with a Lucozade chocolate bar . . . supposidly.

Random mail and unwanted bills, fertilizer and 2 footballs . . . . all manly additions to the man cupboard
