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.

Back on Target for 2019

Well, almost. Two thirds of the year through and my kilometre count for the year approaches 4,000. The goal for August was reached and surpassed so things are looking good for the last third of the year and hitting the 2019 target of 6,000 kilometers.

Getting on with it

After June and July’s poor performance I have to catch up in order to succeed in my challenge to self for 2019 (ride 6,000k). August has been a “catching up” month. This week has been a 199 kilometre week – how could I not get the missing kilometre!!
