Little bit of product testing while resting at Carinya Hut then up a few hills to wash it down with a nice pint or two of local Ginger Beer at the Kalamunda Hotel :)

Shakedown ride today with the trailers loaded up, 85km, lunch was well and truely earned.

One step closer, Topeak Journey TX trailers arrived and first built for a trial.

Getting closer by the day, lets hope this COVID stuff gets sorted soon.

Lockdown entertainment when it’s 36 degrees and the Premier says no exercise without a mask. Bike clean and dropper post removal. Forgot what a lightweight weapon this is without the bags and extras that have been on it for the past six months.

After a slow end to 2020, the start of the new year has created a realisation that time is ticking and that further gear and bike setup needs to be sorted. Today my bike got more comfortable in an ugly kind of way. I am sure further tuning will be required but it’s a step forward in making 8 hours of riding a day more comfortable.

Something a little different this weekend...... fatbikes on cable beach with my lovely wife. It all counts.

This weeks preoccupation has been with another type of bike, built from original survivor parts I have wanted one of these since I first saw one in 1981 at the local track.
