This year I am trying to get back into shape all year round — rather than just for winter when it is much easier to do epic stuff.
So here is some pics from the last two weeks — both featuring Tom who today is sadly moving back to Canberra for work. Here he is rocking a massive rear mud-guard. Why not?
These pics are from the ride up Nebo on Saturday.
This next set is from a bay loop — a goodbye ride to Shirts.
It was a pretty big crew. Shirts, Me (obviously) then Dan, Scott, Tom, Dug, Ryan, Andy, and Dandfx (I am not completely sure of his proper name — but he was a very nice and polite dude. He rode fixed, keeping it real, and is the one pictured mostly out of focus. And he is also the one doing a track-stand. I love taking pics of track stands but not so much taking out-of-focus stuff.)
I can take a great pic of my ear it should be said.
This is Shirts changing my flat tyre. He has no faith in my tyre changing abilities. That all starts back in 2011 when I got a flat on the first epic overnight ridge and he took over after watching me fumble around. I think I was in control for about 1 minute.
Anyway — I think I am getting pretty good these days but Shirts knows and I was happy to let him take over. We were on a tight schedule.
While he was working away he was utterly indignant about how worn out my front tyre was. I bought a new one and replaced it the very next working day.
