This month has been a bit of a write off, too much other stuff going down, only got out 14 times

you should try those awareness dots with a squared rear tyre in the wet...not good.Lukeyboy wrote:My bike and I love wet roads. Its those wooden bridges along the Kedron Brook Bikeway, the new distance markers and the the blind people awareness dots on the pathway at the Roma Street Parklands that we don't like

Still doing huge k's in most of your 14 rides!
Had wet, cold and a gusty wind this afternoon, thought that I'd been transported back to Adelaide for a minute

Have given the riding a real good go this year and am surprising myself at how many k's I am doing. Slowly dropping the weight as well. Started the year around the 97 mark and am hoping to get close to 90 by the end of the year, have hit 93 on the scales already, but depending on how much bread/wine/pasta I consume that figure can go close to 96.
If I keep up this effort, I may just get my year goal by August. Am struggling with early morning motivation at the moment however

It seems to mostly be cosmetic with the clear surface coating being damaged but I'll find out next week what the real damage is. Its not the 80-90kph speeds or the 45kph in 20kph hairpins that gets me. It always the walking pace incidents in the front or back yard Not a good week to say the least but walking around with a box full of new bike parts and goodies sort of made up for that today

Was this heading in or out-bound?

Sounds like it might be a fellow BNA member, if it is then he's ok, but bloody lucky!Lukeyboy wrote:It looked alot worse than others I've come across but it was good to see that he was responsive. Both crashes were on the Northbound run along Sandgate Road through Virginia. The 4 car prang was the normal peak hour bumper to bumper prang and the bike crash was a result of someone heading southbound towards the city cutting across the northbound traffic to enter Prince Street hitting the cyclist going down the hill heading northbound.

I hit 5000 a week ago. Seem to be doing a LOT less riding than expected, between visits to Steve Hogg and misguided attempts at recovery weeks... I think I just need to ride around with the 34 ring and call it recovery lol
