"My reply was because Steve believed an iPhone camera was at risk riding , yes my story morphed into the "fear", I am pissed a law I supported in WA in 1988, has now infected whole generations with the "fear".  He…"

"Steve, it's true, if it isn't insured you could damage the phone, but you ride a nice machine, could be worth $1 200 - $6 000 isn't that at risk too. Do you have health insurance to cover dental and back adjustments, risk is part of…"

A few words about yourself. (This bit is entirely optional!)
I ride for the 'Sweet Spots'

Started cycling fixes when my peripheral vision came in at 8. Rode fixed till 18 and moved to DeRailleur and lighter steel frame.

I am a steel frame lover and always will be. But the Mango has an aluminium and kevlar body so technology has caught up with me. Favourite Frame Builder in Australia is still Aldo @ Quantum Cycles in North Perth WA. He still builds master frames for the worlds leading manufacturers and is the only guy I know with designs on bikes in LeTour.

I Mountain Bike raced before suspension came out, very fit for it during my thirties, up till 43.

Softer 50+ now and still in love with the 'sweet spots' we get every time we ride : )
