"SRAM is good. I have no issue with any of the components they make, it's probably a 60/40 split for mtb groupos shimano/SRAM. Avid? Good brakes, truvative? Good components, rockshox? Excellent. With all that going on in mtb land, I don't…"

iPhone bike mount

Just wondering if anybody has any experience with using these mounts and ANT+ hr and cadence sensors? As a training aid, this looks like a cheaper option than a high end bike gps.  I have looked at the options out there and one that allows me to use the camera function ( again, money saved on a gopro or contour ) would be desirable too. If you have any idea about these mounts, I'm keen to hear from you

I have been riding on and off since I was a child.

A knee recon, I began racing in the riveralnd and 
really enjoyed crits. Now, I ride an all mountain bike,

off on singletrack than I do on the road surrounded by 
cars...

Eli, know what you mean.

My Dec-2011 submission to the National Transport Commission re review of ARR included need for Strict Liability Legislation. If negligent drivers fined, they and their friends would learn to look for cyclists. I have been injured thrice by negligent drivers who were not even fined. Collisions 2 and 3 were only 3 months apart, that shook my confidence and enjoyment of cycling for a year. Until I had a week long trip to The Grampians, camping rough and cycling hard on rough tracks. The effort was worth it, to be cycling away from dangerous and noisy vehicles. Could hear birds singing and came across other wildlife.

Cheers, Heather

Hi Eli,

You can avoid some traffic by cycling routes like The Veloway (cycle only but some illegal pedestrians and motor bikes) or the River Torrens Linear Park (then watch out for pedestrians and dogs who do not know how to share the path). I do not like the linear due to no-shares, but will cycle in a group. AC member Matthew Marshall organises some rides of the linear. http://www.adelaidecyclists.com/profile/matthewmarshall?xg_source=profiles_memberList

Cheers, Heather

Hi Eli,

Welcome to Adelaide Cyclists. You might be interested in joining AC group Commuters and, if you cycle in the city, Adelaide BUG. I know what you mean about riding with cars, and I am trying to improve that. I coordinate four AC groups with emphasis on improving cycling conditions: Adelaide BUG, Prospect BUG, Look For Cyclists and Vote For Cyclists. There is more info in the introduction on each group web page.

Cheers, Heather
