Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale


Caught up with fellow Cannonball Runner Messrs Stefan Wig the Deus Ex Machina Swap Meet, and we had a brief chat about my upcoming incursion into the surf and the state of the counter culture. As it turns out, he is a card holding member of the Gentleman's Surf Club. As the editor of The Sugarmill so eloquently puts it, this is NOT about doing sit down wees. Find out for yourself what it's really about...

Precious people always tell me, that's a step, a step too far

Really wish I could've been involved with this, the Fireflies ride for Leukaemia fund raisers, Leuka. The riders complete their 8-day tour tomorrow, the 23rd of June. Colnago created a special edition Master for the ride, and it's a fine piece of work. Well done everyone involved. Maybe we can organise an Australian edition for next year? Count me in. Check out the gallery of photos on the Fireflies website. Via Creative Review.

When I know I want you, and baby you want me

I think I may have found my next bike. Brooklyn Machine Works Townie, 8 speed internal rear hub, fender and rack mounts... Sweeet! Via Prolly!

When they reach their teens, that's when they all get mean

Well done to everyone involved with the 2010 edition of the Melbourne Roubaix, and especially Andy from Fyxomatosis for creating this magical Melburn Hardcore long sleeve jersey to celebrate the event. Head over to the Fyx Store and get yours before they all disappear, if they haven't already... Otherwise you'll be really sad and have to wait for next year. Wow!

My mama said, baby don't ride that crazy horse

I'm trying my darndest to not let my blog turn into a Chicks on Bikes, but what can I say. I just appreciate fine things, beautiful things, well made and interesting things.
Mr White from the always immensely readable Fyxomatosis has done it again, combining all of the above into a fine shoot. He also does weddings. Check it.

A broom is drearily sweeping


This just in via Le Pista Resistance and Prolly, FLAT OUT: a track bike ride from Sydney to Melbourne. Check them out on the Facebook page. I just rode the route we took on The Cannonball Run on a motorbike and I'm sure the hills have gotten steeper in between Bermagui and Tathra!?! Coming up to a year since we did it...

Some come up and some come young




Them's REAL sapphires. Possibly the greatest post in all of Fyxdom. Whiteism's last before he heads to Japan to commune with brothers and sisters in the Tokyo Cycle Messenger World Championships. Thank you, Shifty, REPRESENT! Check out the Shifterbikes photos, this is why we pay him the big bucks.

The crowd roars, it's deep and so unhealthy


My mate Guy could do a lot worse if he gave up his lust for celeste than buy this Benotto for sale on eBay at the moment. I, 002, will stand up and give my word that this ride has integrity stuffed right down to the bottom bracket, because it's being sold by Fyxomatosis. And that's no bull. Jump on it before Guy does. Check out the rest of the Benotto photoshoot HERE, and become part of the legend!

Facing east while the moon is waning gibbous
















An evening at the LBS with a few brewskis on a Friday night... Macbeth's 'Dale Capo matched with Suzue hubs on ceramic Open Pros, FSA carbon cranks and KMC white chain. The pink Stelvios? Hey, it's only a week after Mardi Gras, give Sydney a break! We're taking this baby from Adelaide to Melburn! Rapha boys eat your heart out!

PS: Can anyone recommend a good camera phone?
