Re: How to turn a cycleway into a don’t-cycleway
Charles/Broughton Street has 5-600 new apartments being built in the next two years. The traffic will be horrendous, and the one-way option wouldn't work. The obvious solution would be to get the developers to fund as part of their DA Contributions the upgrade of the path both at this spot and the C...

Re: CTP changes and CA membership.
The CA Insurance covers Personal Injury and Public Liability. https://info.willis.com/site/cycling/DocLibrary/PublicProductsLiabilityInsurance.aspx There's a $1,000 excess for the PL cover, none for the Injury cover, although when I went through the exercise of downloading the Personal Injury Claim ...

Re: Greg Pankhurst's accident
Great to see you back on a saddle, of sorts, Greg.
What's the training program - just k's, or more specific - cadence, hill repeats...?
Look forward to seeing you post-Ryde.

Re: Pat is doing well.
Despite being a lttle sketchy on the details between Rocky Point Road and "do you know where you are" - it appears I hit a catseye while I had one eye on the car who was letting us in, and I suspect that I had one hand in the air waving a thanks...last memory is the handlebars going skew-i...

Re: Waterfall ride: Middies vs Fasties
Interesting comments Mike. I rode in the 28s recently when you were the ride captain and afterwards you mentioned a few of us should have been riding Middies. As it turns out, all but one of the four riders who were able to keep up with the 36-37k pace coming home on the Grand Parade were in fact re...

Algebraically I think it's 2A + 3G + D = 6(/25). Or a variation thereof.

Wanted - Intro Road bike
Have a brother-in-law after 1st roadie, has been looking at 2-4 year old bikes 2nd hand, and at options like a new Cell alloy/carbon for $800-ish. Around 5'9". If you have anything that might suit taking up space in the garage - or need to offload one to justify the purchase of an upgrade... Pa...

Re: DHBC girl beats boys in competitive racing back in the 1
Such a great story - perhaps the best way to tell it would be in naming an annual event after her. Miller-McLachlan Cup? Track event for Junior Girls? Club-based teams Road event? Endurance event on the track or road? 36 hour teams endurance event to commemorate the Sydney-Melbourne feat? Or even ju...

Re: Non Fixie Imperial Century day trip 21st August
A great ride, in fine company indeed. A quick thank you, Eleri & Mike for organising the ride, assistance with mechanicals, and Mike for suggesting the abridged return route from Stanwell Tops via the Old H'way rather than the return climb back out through RNP. As it was the 120k door-to-door, a...

Re: Can Waterfall to Marrickville via Cronulla be right?
Just discovered that it's best to know the way back if you're going to get dropped on Watrefall ride. It seems that going to Cronulla on the way back is a bit further than planned. Fortunately the good burghers of that town are very helpful with their directions. My public line is that I deceided i...
