Yeah sorry to keep you waiting, I've been putting off collecting the frame because it's sat about 14km away in a workshop the other side of downtown Nairobi. My options are:
Ride the 14km return journey with the frame around my torso like a messenger bag
Attach the frame to my rack and risk it falling off again
Take matatus (hilarious little buses) there and back, which will take probably 2-3 hours of sweaty initmacy with Kenyan commuters/hustlers/mothers
Taxis, costing half a week's wage
Motorbike taxis which will cost me half the taxi price and possibly a limb
Persuade and then inconvenience another expat to drive me the 28km round trip through colourful areas of downtown Nairobi (I've seen car-jacking attempts in nicer areas)
I'm probably going to do 1), or possibly 5). Maybe I can cycle there, and then have the motorbike taxi carry the frame back. I could even draft the motorbike at 45kph down the highway. #notrafficlaws
