Bike Hub 2019 Commuters Challenge


Imploder

Recommended Posts

Skipped the commute today as that South Easter is a killer on the way home. Winds looking more favorable for tomorrow though.

Come on Albatross, the wind will only make you stronger.

I am currently on the road bike as the commuter is getting the spoke replaced, so the wind is quite crazy.  :whistling:

Commuting home into the SE is the highlight of my day sometimes. I see to day is only 30kmh, not enough to get me excited.

Had a bit of a mishap riding around the neighbourhood this past Saturday. No commuting for me for the next three weeks  :(

I'd be paranoid AF stopping there alone in the dark to fix whatever.

 

Wonder how long a GP4000 will last when completely flat, coz there no way i'm stopping.

It all started with us riding around the block in order for the dog to get a bit of a run. Fiance felt the urge to start racing us (me with one hand on the bars and the other holding the dog's leash + being pulled along by a whippet makes you go nice and fast). Flip flops slipped off the pedals when the gear slipped and I had no way to control the bike riding with one hand! Ended up taking out a sprinkler, baby tree and landing with my face on a stone = bad concussion.

Any GoPro footage of this?

Just joking. Sorry that sounds sore. Heal up soon.
