    What do your kids wear on their head

    Hi Melbourne team - I need to take my 8yo daughter out on the weekend at get a new helmet. Any suggestions as to who may have a decent stock of gear to try? I was thinking of heading across to Ivanhoe cycles as they are one of the biggest bike shops that spring to mind.

    What does your day look like?

    Last night I called off riding with friends this morning due to the forecast rain. Got up to see if I could walk the dog and found this. I backed it up by locking myself out of the house. All before 7am.

    What do your kids ride?

    Thank you for the feedback team. IF anyone is in the market for a quality 16" bike I am putting Jpez's Prevelo back up for sale after it has sat unloved in the garage for quite some time. Sorry - the strawberry bell will not be included. Seems there is some attachment to it.

    Kingswoods could be started with a spoon/butter knife/6" rule after the locks wore out. Mate had one that the keys used to fall out of the ignition when driving.

    Is winding down all the windows on a hot day to let the air inside the car get back to ambient temperature before turning on the air conditioning an old person thing? It seems to be very out of fashion but I have an old car and try not to strain it on hot days. People just seems to get in an go.

    I have a mate who is a career firey - without fail if they are having a quiet night and relaxing someone will light a bin on fire. At least one truck goes out every night.

    Ran my fingers around the lid of the yoghurt tub to pry it off and added a paper cut type slice all the way across the rude finger on my dominant hand. A little pain, a lot of blood and now 6 months of healing as I am old.
