I find that just doing whatever the hell you want and eating and drinking when you like is really quite preferable to caring about all of that stuff. I am at this stage in my 'career' where I don't train, do ok, and it's still really fun. If I was to start getting serious and watching what I eat, s...

Re: New Australian criterium series
The speed they averaged for the length of the race was intense, especially considering Coogee was corner/sprint, followed by corner/sprint. Di2 shifts sound so violent and Zipps going past at 45km/h sound good enough for me to sell my car to get some.

Re: New Australian criterium series
I hear the Coogee criterium today turned out to be a carnage due to water on the road. There were maybe three 'crashes' at the top turn, and two at the bottom. It was a pretty cool event, a lot of people just walking past were asking my two friends and I (obvious cyclists due to our attire) questio...

Re: Dulwich Hill spotted
I saw someone riding off oxford onto crown st yesterday evening around 6:20pm, in a DHBC jersey. I was at mad mex having a wonderful burrito. I don't remember the bike he was on because I had to many beers, but I think he may have had boardshorts and a backpack.

Wow. Was it caused by inexperience? I hope Matt is ok, and crashes like this don't deter people from putting on more events. Should we start a donation from everyone to get Matt a new helmet? $5-10 each here and there would get a bit together.

I believe the law is worded something to the effect of, "One must exit a vehicle in a manner not to cause harm or discomfort to another party". So if you're lane-splitting, which is perfectly legal, and someone car doors you, you'll be in the right. However it might not seem like it when y...

No late fees huh. Guess I'll just sit around home in my derps instead. I realise on the day entry is harder for organisers, but with my work/life schedule, I don't know what I'm doing three days from now, let alone two weeks or a week's time. It makes trying to race anything but RAW a real pain.
