First ride for 2019.
Temp a very high 6C, sunny and no wind.
Just a short ride to get the legs moving.
Few photo's.
Enjoy.

Thanks! Always great to see pics around your neck of the woods.

While out on my bike I came across these in Vale Park, New Brighton.

All made with drift wood and woodland scraps.....

I am preparing for the Fleche Opperman all day trial at present which requires covering 180km in less than 14 hours. At present daytime temps are in the mid 30's so this means riding in the middle of the day which sucks the life from the legs.

Yeah, I went there.

I've run the course in two parts this week with pictures below from the more scenic ride into the city and river loop through the fancy suburbs near the river.

The route of 107km. Into the city and beyond, mostly on bikepaths.

The city facing east from the Kurilpa bridge.

The end of the road at Long Pocket.

St Lucy's at the uni from whence the great adventure begins and ends.

The Defy at rest.

Looking west from the Kurilpa bridge.

I got hungry at one point. I never normally eat this rubbish.

You're a better man than me Keith!

Great pics

I see 2 bottles, no battery pack.
You do this for fun ? , hmmm, agree with Dazz,

enjoy !

Aussie Keith · **Reply #16: March 11, 2019, 21:48:12**

No batteries yet and I'm still working on fitness after the health issue a while back. Some of the Audax riders do cover a lot of kms though, one fellow did more than 25000km last season.

Here's a little something...

BLOODY HELL

Our Santa is 1 year old and we put 20k km on it - thought that was big

This is Bling. I'm not sure if I've mentioned this bike before, its 35 years young and quite the eye catcher. It's the superbike of its day, old school awesome and rocking the latest drivetrain and wheel tech. It goes very well indeed.

Beast of a thing.

Dazzler · **Reply #19: March 14, 2019, 16:09:12**

Nice!

The oldies can't ve beaten for durability.

My Saracen is some 22 yo, originally bought for my son.

Still got original wheels had a couple of new spokes and a few new tyres.
Gear mechanism, brakes, sadle and paint work all as factory fitted.

When i started riding it a few years ago I changed the handle bar stem to produce a more upright riding postion due to aging back!

Dazzler · **Reply #21: March 15, 2019, 06:03:46**

That's the way to go Lester. Like an old broom we've go at home. They don't make em like that any more. It's had 3 new handles and 2 new heads, but still like new after all these years...

Aussie Keith · **Reply #22: March 24, 2019, 12:05:34**

First Oppy this weekend. I'm still on the mend so did the short version, 180km although we managed a bit more than that in the end. It was hot, but not as hot as the time the rear tire exploded.

Fleche Opperman

A couple more below from the new motorway bikepath taken earlier in the week.

Got out today around the historic city of Chester.

As I've posted pics before of Chester so only 3 from the suspension bridge crossing the River Dee.

Photo's from my latest ride. Enjoy.

Started some 15 miles up river from Liverpool by Widnes/Runcorn road/rail bridges on the River Mersey.

Rode back towards Liverpool via Hale mostly along the river bank as cycle tracks and footpaths have been constructed over the past few years.

Dazzler · **Reply #29: April 14, 2019, 00:21:11**

Thanks Lester. I enjoy seeing other parts too..

2019 - Any of our members riding their pushy's?
