A friend had one of those, and LOVED it (until it got stolen). Her ex has a matching one, gathering dust in the garage. :( Enjoy!

any body know of any "off road" duathlons coming up? i;e no swimming in dirty water, just mountain bike and trail running. actually, for that matter, even regular duathlons?

Teaching your kid to ride

And, it appears, it starts for another one. (18m, on the custom 'ToddleBike', as she wants to do everything her big sister does). I wrote this elsewhere (coz I got sick of explaining it online to others - never get sick of it in real life), but I'…

Cory replied to Sam's discussion 'V/Line bicylce ban for World Championship weekend'

That was my thinking. An opportunity lost. Some sort of 'Bike damage at your own risk' statement and be done with it.

Cory commented on trundlebug's blog post 'Funny bike chronicles'

The thing I really LOVE about having a folder, is meeting SWMBO somewhere, if she's in the car with the girls. I mean, that can be done by placing the bike on a bike rack, but meh - it's all just so easy with a folder. I would like a better one (min…

Cory replied to Treadly and Me's discussion 'Oi! I've got a kid on here!' in the group Mums, dads and kids

In our various kid transport options, first trailer, then CargoBike (sourced from Barefoot), and now combination of CargoBike and Thing1 on Trailgator on her bike, Thing2 in BoBike mini up the front, that people give us a heap of clearance. I mean,…

The morning commute

For as long as she's been able, Thing1 has loved riding her Runbike to childcare. Not every day, mind you, just when it suits her (which is the majority of the time). We love it because she can go at our walking pace (or faster). She's been riding…

The FluoroBeast.... it's AH-LYYYYYYYYYYVE! (again)

Well, after languishing on a hook for the better part of a year since I got my MASI (meh, it should've have broken its rear gear cable in disgust), the Fluorobeast is on the roads again. New gear cable - brakes adjusted, some stem customisation and adjustment, and we now have a new transport vehicle.

The Fluorobeast - now with less fluoro

For a while now (like, around 18 months), I've been meaning to cut down the flat bar on my daily SLUT commuter-scooter, the "Fluorobeast".

Well today, I found myself in the backyard with a newborn strapped to my chest. I was attempting to hang out the washing on the clothes horse (don't trust Melb weather), but that wasn't quite enough for the freshie. She wanted to be outside. So, looking… Continue
