Wesley also sports a pretty sweet colnago cap as well. In regards to the video of the Vail World Champs, at 0:36 it would appear that they have utilised a crotch-cam. Head mounted cams came in post ’94?

Gold, pure XXXX Gold.
I used to live around the corner from Boonie in Sandy Bay.
Nothing like a Boonie sighting in his natural surroundings to make your day.

Ash you have created a very useful guide for travellers and, as usual, punctuation and spelling are top notch.

Well, done boys and congrats! Also great account of events, Brendan. It really made me smile!
The only disturbing news here would be Sean learning to drive since I know the way he rides a bike (gnarly) and what kind of music he listens to (short, fast and lound)…

Tim McGrath should be executed for mixing that other rubbish with Campagnolo.

Dear Ash

I really like your writing. The whimsical style, uninhibited image appropriation and razor sharp spelling keeps me coming back. Do you still ride? Let’s get out some time. Maybe even on the mountain bike although I just have to work out which direction I’m meant to go in. I could swear the saddle is stuck on backwards

regards
Tim

Nice work Aaron, although I think the bike you’re using is cheating in cyclo cross. Back in my junior days racing in Germany you were officially allowed to ride an MTB through the cyclo cross season but only with the restriction to a 490mm wide bar and a maximum tyre width of 1.7. But I have to admit that noone would even think about single speed back then. Enjoy Melbourne – I’m jealous!

Comment on When is a 6HR not a 6HR by Aaron

That must have made Beechworth 6hr with your 3? flats seem like fun. Less chance of finding a 10speed link on the track then a 29″ tube!

Was planning on going to a 29″hardtail from 26″duallie but post like yours don’t help with that decision!
