A few months ago we had a Team Kit made. Grant took some photos of some of us at the track last night.

Take a look!

The Dodici in trout hunting mode – she covered a solid 80Km today including a few hundred meters of elevation up into the Akatarawa ranges on a trout stalking mission. No fish but as they say, “the journey is half the fun.” Probably closer to 90 percent in this case …Life just rolls on that little bit slower when you have a fixed gear and a pack on your back.

Last week Gareth came down from Palmy and bombed some hills with us.

I didn’t get any photos on the ride, but here’s some from the pre-start.

Thursday the 22nd was a perfectly still night; Richard, Tim and I hit the streets.

The route was a reverse-double-bays of about 33km, heading out through Newtown and stopping in Seatoun for some shark-n-taties on the beach.

One reason not to clean your bike. Let this be a reminder to take care when cleaning a track bike, and if possible remove your chain!

Arrived in the land of the rising sun. Was hoping to see a lot more of Tokyo, but time is very limited.
Here’s a bike shop I stumbled upon when wondering through Harajuku in Tokyo.

… So finally I did a bike check. Here’s my 725TR Track bike (50×17) which is FOR SALE by the way (leave a post if your interested). I’m moving to San Francisco, so its perfect excuse for me to build up a new bike haha.

This bike is built up for the streets, wheelset is on the heavy side (and “hypespoke” circa 2009) but perfect for curb hopping and the occasional off-road-ing. Bullhorns for the Wellington Hills and the carbon fork is super comfy on the road. I’m definitely going to miss this ride.
