Night rides on the road bike...

...are awesome. Managed to fix the road bike yesterday, so i decided to meet up with Hubcap for a shakedown ride yesterday evening to make sure it was all working properly. Met at his place at new farm at half five after he finished work and proceeded to head north. The aim was to head out to boondall and back via the wetlands bike path (an really fun ride, even more so at night!!), although that plan very soon became ride out to redcliffe and back.
Ultimate strong riding fuel. Fire socks are awesome too. The end result was a 100k round trip, very pleasant weather for this time of year. nice cool breeze, clear skies, good times.

It wasn't my first ride for the day either. i'd met up with grant this morning at the circuit at nundah after dropping my sweetheart off to the airport for a fixie ride. hour and a half of flat land riding on the big track gear fixie, followed by coffee. good stuff. so about 130ish for the day, training coming good lately, especially after track racing tuesday night. Next port of call is the HPRW crit at nundah on saturday morning.

If i ever end up really rich, i'm buying one of these. the 911 turbo. Oh Yeah!!
