Surviving the Alpine Classic Extreme (ACE250).

Last Sunday, I rode my first Audax Alpine Classic Extreme (or the ACE 250) down in Northern Victoria. This ride was simply fantastic and the thing I love about Audax riding is the opportunity to…
The difference 6 months makes

On Saturday I returned to Tempe Velodrome for some club racing. By chance I was able to borrow a car and dust off my track bike that has been looking at me with disappointed eyes for so long. It was the first time I'd raced in 6 months and quite a revelation for me in terms of accessing my own fitness. Since moving over to the socalled 'wrong' side of the bridge in March, I hadn't been out on any hard sunday morning training rides with Dulwich… Continue
Everyone's a critic

Bicycles seem to be great conversation starters between strangers. Last saturday night was one such occasion. I was catching the train into the city with my fuji touring bike and there was another guy on the train who also had his bike. He then said to me "Thats's a great touring bike you've got there... [thanks]... but its no good for riding in the city". Oh??? "Why is it no good for riding in the city?" I asked. "Well, the wheels aren't strong enough"... Huh?... I didn't digress in to the… Continue
Welcome to Heffron Park

On Saturday was my last race at Heffron Park. I've decided to leave it for a while as it is so time consuming while I'm trying to finish my studies and maintain some semblance of a social life on weekends.
Here is some footage from the start of the race. Paul Craft (or Crafty) decided to lay into one guy when he turned up wearing a world champhionship jersey. Crafty does this any time a person wears a jersey that does not belong to them. This guy should have known better. He was… Continue

Audax Riders
Audax rides are non-competitive long distance tours by bicycle, called "randonnees". The challenge of Audax is not in racing, but in riding at your own pace. Rides are open to all reasonably fit riders - non-Audax members are most welcome to join.
robflyte commented on Adrian's group Audax Riders"nice, looks like I may not be able to do any riding that weekend, no 600 attempt. A little peeved."
Rob Berry commented on Adrian's group Audax Riders"My May ride will be a permanent, Hawkesbury Valley Randonee 200km on the 25th (I'll start at 6am at Hornsby, same time and place as the Brutal but Fair 300/600)."

Thanks for your comment. I'm actually planning to join the DHBC 'saturday slowies' in the next few weeks. I'm generally ok with early morning starts. Quiet roads at that time of day is a great motivator for me since I'm fairly freaked out by riding in traffic at the momment.
Hope to see you there.

- Hi Adrian,
My friend Michelle French is organising the bike love parade that opens the Bicycle Film Festival on the 13th of November. We will be riding from Cheeky Transport in Georgina St Newtown at 6.30pm, along King St to Sydney Park for various festivities. http://bffsydney.org/bike-love-street-parade/
Michelle wants me to provide a gang of painted riders and I think it’s a good chance to promote SBAR. Would you and your friends like to attend? We will meet at Cheeky at 5.15 - 5.30pm. Should be finished by 7pm.
Let me know if you'd like to join us
Regards
Jake
