Tell us about your bikes
I have a Gitane hybrid with all sorts of different branded parts on it thanks to my boyfriend who just loves pimping my bike!

I also have an old style Malvern for getting about the inner west on the weekend - now complete with wicker basket and vintage mud guards - I heart Malvern!



Hand me down LeMond road bike that I haven't started riding yet (sometimes its great having rich friends who upgrade to a $8k bike!) Lets hope I can manage to use drop handlebars:)



A single fixed gear old yellow heavy steel bike complete with mudguards and basket that I fell in love with on eBay. Unfortunately it is way to small for me (damn sometimes being tall sucks!) so I have to polish it up and resell.



I hope to get a proper touring bike (Surly or Vivente) someday and do more touring holidays - the pain of Tassie's hills on the last one is now just a romantic memory:)
About Me:
I don't like big hills much, love coffee, good food and big dogs. I work in an Arts/Museums institution (HHT) as a web editor and sponsorship assistant. I am also trying to do a part-time PhD in art history but I end up riding my bikes, hanging out and generally not studying on the weekends-so might have to give the books up!
