Photos by James Broadway. Love your work James! This past weekend St. Kilda Cycling Club (SKCC) hosted the first annual Albert Park Grand Prix Criterium. As usual, SKCC did an outstanding job with creating an excellent event as well as providing a festive atmosphere at Albert Park (on the same circuit as the Australian […]

Biggest Bang For Your Buck In Time Trial Equipment

April 27, 2010

The speed you can achieve on your bike is determined by two factors:

Is Wood The Goods?

April 11, 2010

In the early days of cycling (pre- 1950’s) the best material choice for rims was wood. As with most things technology has progressed and different materials have evolved to made wheels stronger, lighter and the ride more comfortable. You can imagine my surprise when I walked into Cycling Edge the other week and saw a […]

Garmin Edge 500 Review

March 25, 2010

Every once in a while there’s a product that comes along that I like so much and I won’t shut up about it. The Garmin Edge 500 bike computer is one of those products. It’s been my little gadget of obsession over the past few months. I’ve been using it since Christmas and have given […]

Unique Bike Designs

March 19, 2010

If it’s not already obvious I’m a bit of a nut for bikes. As crazy as they sometimes get, I love everything about them. Here are some interesting and random designs that I’ve come across that certainly won’t be within UCI guidelines, but fun to look at (and mock) nonetheless. TGIF. I need another vacation […]

Bike Wash Zen

February 16, 2010

The Parlee Z5

February 15, 2010

Over many years I’ve been spoiled with nice bikes that have basically been given to me. I never had a need that required me to do some heavy research on on a bike I’ll be dropping thousands of dollars on. I’ve been extremely fortunate.

SHUT UP LEGS Pre-Orders Now LIVE!

February 10, 2010

It took a while to get all the details ironed out but we’re now ready to start taking orders on the “SHUT UP LEGS” t-shirts (you need to say it with a thick German “Jens” accent to get full effect). I’ve tried getting in contact with Jens Voigt via a friend who knows him but […]

Finding the right saddle

December 23, 2009

I had the pleasure of working with Osteopath Dominic Briscomb from First Place Osteopathy a couple months ago during the Sun Tour. He was such a captivating guy to listen to with a wealth of cycling related knowledge combined with his profession. He’s worked on loads of high profile pro cyclists and amateurs alike. I’ve been […]

Christmas Stocking Stuffers

December 8, 2009

I hate to say it but Christmas is creeping up on us fast. For me, it seems to happen even more quickly here in Australia because none of the usual signs of Christmas are flashing in my face. Out of nowhere it’s all of a sudden December! Before Christmas gets too close I thought I’d […]
