The Long Road To Brisvegas 10

Well today had a bit of everything, we traveled from Tamworth to Armidale starting out in cold wet conditions.
We cruised along pretty nicely until we got to the Moonby Hill which for anyone that hasn't ridden up it is a lot like riding the bad way out of Woolongong towards Sydney.
Suffice to say when we got to the top there were a few thankful looks including mine.
During this whole climbing phase the other thing that was happening was the temperature, by the time we hit the top of… Continue

Today was a shocker, we started out from the hotel at 7am towards Tamworth straight into a headwind, all good until the rain. Wet cloths and saddle chafe aren't a great combo.
Having said that the kms clicked by pretty quickly, there were a few stops for mechanical issues that our mechanic Paul (one of the owners of Cranks cycles) sorted out quickly, and a stop in Muswellbrook for afternoon tea courtesy of the council.
After that things got a bit tough, the rain eased off but the wind… Continue

Well the first day is down, 180km riding from Sydney to just outside Cessnock. It was interesting riding in the bunch with a lot of new people, some with a lot of experience some with almost none, no accidents though there were some funny incidents involving new people and cleats :)
Tomorrow is a much bigger day 270kms with a lot more hills, we are riding from here to Tamworth and I think we will have a few people riding in the bus before the day is over. It's been great to see people step… Continue

Well the day is almost upon me, tomorrow myself a 29 other riders will take to the roads of Sydney on our way north for some fun, adventure and hopefully raising a lot of money for a great charity. To date we have raised almost $120 000 and we are hoping to do even better by the end of the ride.
The charity supports Randwick and Brisbane children;s hospitals providing much needed support for research into children's diseases and care including… Continue

It's been a while now and to be honest progress has stalled a bit on the training. A new job, a new love and house hunting has left not much free time for the training schedule..
Weight wise I've sat at about 80kg now for some time so no great additional wins but no losses either. The next month is going to have to be pretty big or this little chicken is going to hurt for all to hear.
The training schedule kicks back off again this Sunday which will give me…

Welcome to Sydneycyclist! (a little belatedly I know, I'm usually more on top of this)

Looks like you do the opposite commute to me, I live in Cremorne and work in Woolloomooloo :)

- well depends on how fixing my broken spoke goes tonight! got a busy weekend so maybe not in the near future, but i usually get one in each weekend. been thinking about doing a bondi trip one weekend, bit of a hike for me.

My mate John and I are going for a ride this saturday. We're meeting at 3pm at St Thomas Rest Park (the cemetary) on West St Cammeray and riding to Lane Cove and back. Hope you can make it. Text me if you can make it so I know to keep an eye out for you :)

- Geez you're right, I'm going that way tonight too, might give the guy a call. I was thinking of going new but for that price I can afford to customise. 58cm is good too. If this is a goer, I owe ya one!

Neil Alexander said… - Hi David. No, I have no further Audax-riding plans. I think I am pretty well Audaxed out now, having started doing them in the mid-80s. I guess there is a minuscule chance of a "spur of the moment" decision to do one sometime... but I wouldn't hold my breath. ;-)
