My Giant TCR for when I'm doing the roadie thing.
The rest of the time, cruising around, shopping, riding with the kids I'm either on my Masi Speciale Fixed or a Bianchi Volpe Cross bike.
I alternate between thinking I have too many bikes and wanting another one.

Going the distance....
Posted on April 14, 2012 at 9:30pm 6 Comments 2 Likes
So, I've had a crap week. Sometimes running a bunch of public websites is an amazingly rewarding experience, other times it's incredibly draining and you wonder why you do it. That on top of a bunch of work and other projects I've got on has me mentally worn out. When I'm mentally worn out, I don't get up early, so I don't train.
So, I've not…

I set myself a couple of fitness goals this year, and some of them involve getting back in to criterium racing.
I used to race a little bit when I lived in Sydney, it's a lot of fun, but I struggle a little bit with maintaining the fitness, whenever I'm getting some momentum something happens, sickness, work stuff, something that knocks me around and keeps me off the bike. I've whined about that before :)
Anyway, the last few months have been decent. I've been…

It's a wet Saturday afternoon so I've pulled out the DVD of Chasing Legends, a beautifully shot doco on the Tour de France and the HTC team at the 2009 tour.
If you've not seen it and you're a pro cycling fan at all it's well worth a watch. It shows beautiful scenery, a look at some of the race…

So how was your New Years Day ride ?
The sensible thing to do of course is getting out the door early in the morning to get a good ride in before it gets hot and the wind picks up.
When was I ever sensible though ?
I spent the morning with the kids, taking them to the park (on bikes of course) and bumming around the house eating my way through the lovely ham we bought for Christmas. At about 1 I got on the bike to go for a…

Hi Damian,
Thank you for the welcome.
I managed to complete my first ride from Richlands to Toowong and back on Wednesday and am already looking forward to my next ride.
Soon I hope to substitute two trips a week into the city by riding the bike instead of taking the train.
Regards,
Dan

Thanks for the welcome Damian. Found this site while researching trikes for a potential purchase. I've always owned conventional bikes but i'm becoming enamoured with these beasts.
Do you know where I can get more info, test rides etc? BTW - I also take my 2 year old son with me in a Cruiser trailer almost daily and intend on doing the some this with the trike.
Any help is appreciated.
