I have a Cell 2200, only rode it about 1200km and it mostly sits in the hallway. I want to replace it with a commuter single-gear to compliment with my 21speed commuter. Anyone in Sydney or environs interested?A great training or starter road bike with clips in the pedals, computer and a few other accessories.…See More
Joseph Ortenzi replied to Tom Nockolds's discussion Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority - crackdown on bicycle parking?"Surely they can see the difference between a commuter's bike and an advertising bike? But considering the rambling, grammatically weak reply from the SFHA rep, maybe not surprising. But surely all they have…"
Joseph Ortenzi replied to Tom Nockolds's discussion Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority - crackdown on bicycle parking?"Agree, It does look like they have been polite and helpful thus far.
The one thing to challenge however is : what purpose is this? What does it serve? Why can one not chain a bike to that location for a short period, i.e.: not overnight?"
Joseph Ortenzi replied to Tom Nockolds's discussion Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority - crackdown on bicycle parking?"That would be covered by separate legislation and therefore not need to be covered under this clause.
Because a condition isn't described doesn't mean it is permitted in general. "
Joseph Ortenzi replied to Tom Nockolds's discussion Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority - crackdown on bicycle parking?"If your locked bike obstructs a fire exit it deserves to be taken away, and some might say, destroyed, for being so inconsiderate. "

Damien Gardiner replied to Joseph Ortenzi's discussion WANTED: cheap and light road bike"I can sell my new Cell Swift road bike to you for 800.00 including Shimano pedals. I purchased this bike but because of recent back problems I am unable to ride it. The bike has all Shimano gearing and was recommended for 300 Km per week riding."
Joseph Ortenzi replied to Joseph Ortenzi's discussion WANTED: cheap and light road bike"thanks for the advice ubu. I prefer, I think to be more used to the bike though and want it to be familiar. So I'd want to have ridden a few 60-100km rides so it is very comfortable. But if I don't find anything reasonable I'll deffo…"
"If you only want it for a couple of days, you might be better off hiring one? Will probably cost you less than what you'll "lose" buying and selling one, plus not as much hassle.
Centennial Park Cycles have an okay road bike…"
Joseph Ortenzi replied to DamianM's discussion The Cell Bikes thread"Thanks Robert. Looks like a nice bike but not sure it was what I had in mind for my trip. My current needs are posted in this discussion in the wanted section"
