Alexander, if you did mind me copying your post, I would have removed it. If you peruse group Look For Cyclists, you will notice that I am putting together reference material for cyclists regarding collisions and near misses, which unfortunately seem to be too common.

Alexander, I have copied your post 'Legal Definition of Assault' of 10-Jan-2011 on the group Look For Cyclists.

Thanks so much Alexander. I'm in Woodville Gardens. I don't have the tools that are needed for the job so I can bring my bike to you if you like.

Hi Alexander, If you're still willing to help with the crankshaft for my trek, please let me know what details you need to check whether you have something suitable for my bike. You may need to step me through what you mean by things like square taper bottom. I can send photos if that will help. The temporary fix by dad's mate is kaput and I'm off the road at present :(. Really appreciate your offer.

I did indeed mean that

Dude! I haven't been on my bike in almost 3 weeks, let alone a long ride on a mtn bike and you're out telling people that I'm super fit! You have me scared shitless for this ride, and I'm very much considering piking! :P

Haha, that's because I'm keen to find out what this cyclecross and polo is all about, sounds like awesome fun just when I'm lacking a bit of motivation for straight riding. :)

Thanks for your comment, stay safe on the ride tomorrow and always

Train hard, race easy munky features x

Hope that you and Carla did not do it too tough doing that little ride around Port Phillip Bay :-)

Hi,

It is a funny thing that when I set up the site, just after the TDU, I thought the roadies would really be in it. I started a few sub-groups to kick things off but the Road Riders (and even the MTB riders) are not that busy. The popularity of this site has been in the advocacy, long haul, cargo and urban riding.

I ride roadies and do the hills and will be riding in the TDU. Beefing up the road element if you are into it would be great. You could do it as a regular blog (do you read cyclingtipsblog.com) You could also start your own 'group' calling it training etc so you can catch the TDU and Amy's ride people as well as the triathalon riders (there are a few).

Maybe the best thing might be to do a forum or blog post (there is not real difference except blogs are more editable later) talking about your interest and that you are thinking of a group and what it would cover and go from there. You can show maps and pictures etc in a group. Once a group is set up if someone posts into it it automatically sends and email to all group members so they stay connected.

Let me know if you need any help.

Thanks for your interest. We are planning a meet up very soon - hopefully in the next few weeks.

Cheers
Angus

good luck his weekend mate... round the bay, hope that the weather is kind to you!
