Phil, Its a pretty well known issue. If you don't mind an older version of the riak client there is a folk on github that does support this https://github.com/bretthoerner/riak-python-client/branches. Your other option is to manage it in your app or subclass the transport object. Some people use haproxy. I'm not a fan of this approach in production, since the load balancer is now the point of failure.
