Interesting observations
An interesting observation - from my perspective.
Saturday morning a mate and i went scumming (road biking) out to West Head (his bike was being rebuilt, so it was the only option for a ride). Just like a few others over recent months, i had an off - at around 70kmh going around a corner. The carnage trail was 25m long and quite obvious. My current state was also quite obvious - totalled bike, and i was a tad messed up to say the least (lycra doesnt tend to be compatable with the road...), so acres of skin missing.
Security alert for Sydney CBD bike commuters
After Sasc and nickovalentino had their bikes stolen from under their building at North Sydney last week, it looks like the bike thief scum have moved into the CBD. Just got this email late this afternoon:
Dear All,
Early this morning EQ Management’s Security Team managed to deter an intruder from entering the B1 Bike Cage.
The incident has been reported to the Police and Group Security.
A general reminder to all staff that utilise these facilities to ensure that no valuables or bikes be stored overnight.
Harbour Bridge Closure
A friend told me that tomorrow you will have to dismount and walk your bike across the bridge due to an Amway convention. Apparently they have access to the western side of bridge. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance.
Truly inspiring trip

Went for a burn on perimeter and long last night and came across this thing spread across the track near the school

Seeking secure cycle parking in Sydney CBD
Hi Folks,
Sadly I moved offices over the xmas break and can no longer park bike in my office building.
I therefore need to find somewhere to park my bike in Sydney CBD, near to Wynyard\Bond Street if possible. I heard there are car parks that take bikes for approx $1 per day. Would be happy to pay for extra security.
Any one know more info?
Cheers for any info gratefully recieived

Car numberplates for bike racks
On the way up north on Sunday a few people got pulled over by the cops as they usually do as they went past me as I was not in a hurry for a change the few I saw that got pulled up ,I put two & two together & worked out that they were getting pulled up for having the bikes on the racks without the rta supplied plate , Looks like the new laws are in full swing already .
Robo Cog cafe
Not that I ever hang around in this neighborhood, but if you do, this Robo Cog cafe in Surrey Hills looks like it might be worth a visit? A friend send me the link below, they must think I'm into bikes or something?
