More laws? Yes Please
I saw the link http://ow.ly/6cHT on Twitter about some new laws about to go though in Texas "The Safe Passing Bill" if we could only get something similar here.

Roadies: check your lights!
Almost hit a couple of brothers (cyclists) while driving home at dusk yesterday. One wasn't wearing a light and the other had some bees dick useless light. Sure, i'm glad there wasn't an incident, but i see riders with no lights or a lot with really tiny lights all the time and it's frustrating. It's unfair to drivers. It would be hard to blame a driver that hit a rider in such circumstances. Please, if you ride on road at night, look at your lights from a decent distance some time and see if they are actually effective (big and bright).
Sydney to the Gong 4th Nov 07

ok, i know i will be forever seen poorly amongst the nobmob crew but i do this ride every year and i actually enjoy it.
Virgin Commuter
Dunno if anyone knew, but my time of walking to work has gone, replaced most of this week by sitting on a bus in traffic (yerch!).
However, today things changed. Finally got everything sorted for a ride to the office, and here it is:

Stats are wrong for a number of reasons, and a few wrong turns were taken. But the ride wasn't that bad at all so hopefully this will become a regular occurrence.
Can't do this all the time on the Rush of course. So... suggestions for a commuter bike?
Berowra Valley and Castle Hill (Fred Caterson Reserve)

Big training ride epic...
Okay I know this sounds like a big ride...thats right its going to be 60km of joy!
After the Galston Gorge, we hit tar on Quarry Rd and head for Castle Hill via Round Corner on the Old North Rd, we get off at Gilbert Rd and take some parks, and backstreets to get to Fred Caterson Reserve.
There are some hidden gems of single tracks here, plus the trails within the reserve proper and the BMX track, which is always good for burning excess energy.
