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.

Mid Winter and it’s a cold one

Last year at this time I was often working in the shed building the bicycle camper. We had a mild winter with only a few frosty mornings so working conditions were good.

The start of Winter

I see I am not writing much this year. There are several reasons for this, one being I’m not actually riding very often. In fact Mrs C and I are doing a bit more walking – hence the above picture from the Tamar Wetlands walk.
