Cycling in Tasmania and, sometimes, beyond

In 2024 I set a target to cycle my age each week. That was 77 kilometres per week until May when the target increased to 78 ks. For various reasons I did not manage this!!

By January 2025 I have not set cycling targets for the new year. There’s a few things going on that are unrelated to cycling and may take my time. These include a few health issues plus a desire to focus on some camping trips. Mrs C and I have a few camping trips in us yet and we plan to get out there and enjoy this summer.

I hope to take the Beriault Camper out for a trip or two too – but the focus this year is car camping (probably with the folding Brompton).

This Blog is about how all this is going.

Born in 1946 I learnt to cycle about 10 years later. On a bike with rods connecting brake levers to the brakes - anyone remember those? I emigrated to Australia (from the UK) in 1974 and moved to Tasmania in 1984. Bicycles were in my life for most of that time although sometimes they were replaced by motorised two wheels for a bit more excitement. On reaching 70 I decided to stick to pedal power but in 2019 an electric recumbent made an appearance. it's now 2023 and I have 3 bikes. 2 e-recumbents and the Brompton.

  2. Hi Tony
    good to hear you got back from your epic Vic/SA ride in one piece, you don’t know anyone who wants to by a trike do you?
    Cheers Rob

    1. Sorry Rob – don’t know of anyone. I thought it must be yours on Gumtree.

      A pity it didn’t work for you but I trust the two wheel version is still working well.
