Thanks for organising this ride Angus, it was great to be able to bring Chris' grandson along with us on his first ever proper ride. Jaron is quite worn out now - 23km on a bmx is no mean feat,…Continue

I was finding the saddle that came on my Trek was not only uncomfortable for my sit bones... but my tender bits were getting quite tender after an hour or so...So I read some reviews online and…Continue

New spin bike
Posted on May 28, 2011 at 19:21 4 Comments 3 Likes
Having read a bit about trainers and not being keen to have to replace back tyres or buy a training wheel for each bike, we decided today to invest in a spin bike instead, We went with the hire purchase arrangement - it's interest free and the amount we have already paid will come off the purchase price if we decide to keep it.
It's a Body Craft, seems to be very smooth and quiet. Came with pedals and toe straps but we will put SPD pedals on it.
This will give me a chance to…

Today I followed up on my BikeSA maintenance course and tackled changing a tube... chose the back wheel because it's trickier (I figure Mr Murphy will ensure my first flat is on the back if I don't know what to do!). Chris supervised and provided the extra instruction required. I managed to get the tire off and back on without tyre levers, pretty happy with that. Even got the tyre back up to a reasonable pressure using the hand…

My new knicks from Ground Effect www.groundeffect.co.nz arrived today. They are womens specific, called 'Witches Britches'. I was a bit doubtful about sizing, but they seem to stretch pretty well :o) Meant for winter they are 3/4 length (more like 5/8 on me) and the lycra is really soft on the inside (brushed) and matte on the outside, Got them in the wash, looking forward to trying them out! Also got Chris a merino singlet base layer, that is… Continue
AC's second birthday ride
Posted on April 3, 2011 at 14:54 14 Comments 3 Likes
Only made up my mind last night to ride in the Adelaide Cyclist's second birthday ride.
Nearly talked myself out of it given the fact I'd have to be up at 6am (I'm rather partial to a Sunday sleep in) to get myself to Glenelg for 8am. It was also a bit daunting going by myself and not knowing a single soul there...…
