My darling wife was so happy to have me home. While I was away, Jen lost almost 10kg... apparently there's some correlation between my cooking and her ability to wear size xs jerseys....
This means that my very first job was to check all her bikes and watch her parade in her pretty new kit...

More than happy to oblige.

Congratulations darling. It's so good to see you smiling on your bike again.

We can't thank DURATEC, s.r.o. enough for making this happen.

Such a wonderful company to work with and we appreciate them a lot!

Aus champ stripes, because nobody can take them away.

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Having a second engine is faster

Introducing the 2023 Australian men's tandem timetrial champion. STEVE KEMP!

This is living

Best of all lookout looking the best I've ever seen it
80km 3 percent

Been a hectic few weeks with work, and it's no surprise my own riding has been less than impressive. Hoping to capitalise on the 2 days of sunshine may has to offer to get out on the road.

New bike day!
It's not the same as getting to ride outside, but it's much more important. Making sure it's dialed in exactly how I need it to be. There's details I will change in time, but for now it's exactly as it needs to be.
It's been more than 15 years since riding a carbon bike, and as with all my choices, I went with something from the top shelf.
This bike is for racing, not leaning.

If we are going to do 'Peaks challenge' on the tandem we should maybe ride it a bit. Beautiful way to spend the morning. Need a power meter to accurately explain how much more difficult riding up hill is.
In experiments of the past it's 1.6 times harder to ride up a hill on a tandem for the same duration as a single bike. Or 1.6 times longer at the same power.

Soon to be 3 screens, a we**am and a microphone. An office/studio.
A huge step forward to making more little videos and simply adulting better as well.

How positioning has changed in the last 25 years.
Here is my best impression of the Ullrich position circa 2001. Potentially at the youth Olympic festival. 16 years old

Ins Lieu of a Race report this week, here is a little hint on what I do when I'm racing. Something many of you will not have considered before.

It's too hot to be outside, and frankly it's just easier not to have to organise a ride with people when you live in the sticks. Hard not to like it when this is your view though.

Another NDIS funded tandem to a very lucky recipient. It took a while to be able to get this all together, but it will be worth it in the end
