Good experiences x2 buying SRAM components from PDL.Bike, a (new?) online store located in Sydney. The owner Matt called me within minutes of placing my first order to clarify something. Both orders were shipped super quick. I was half expecting OEM or grey import, but everything has been retail...
I got around in 4:43 (on a gravel bike) and certainly learned a lot about pacing and bike setup. I ran a 44t chainring and was in my lowest gear on some of the climbs. The thought of not having a bail out gear was messing with my head so I think I was holding back a bit. Getting dropped on the...
100. I thought I would smoke the dirt roadies on the descents but I was getting dropped big time. Descending off road on a drop bar bike is definitely a skill I need to practice, and some of the terrain was gnarlier than I anticipated. I was actually taking back places on the climbs, so I think...
Had a crack at Devils Cardigan over the weekend. It was my first race in over 20 years and I had no idea what to expect, but there was a great vibe, super ‘inclusive’, and I had heaps of fun. Already looking for my next race.

That is why I prefer shoulder seasons at Derby. It kind of feels like you have the place to yourself these days. The sun isn’t trying to kill you either.
I feel sorry for anyone that has a financial interest in the town. The ‘season’ seems to be getting shorter and shorter. There is a lot of...
I seem to give droppers a hard time (it could be my 95kg and lack of riding ability) but the 4 bikeyoke posts I have had over the years just take it like a champ and still go up and down like new. $300 is a steal.
The meme about Germany when I was a kid was 'efficient to a fault'. My bike24 order has been chilling somewhere in Deutschland for the past month.
Meanwhile, orders from my Italian store breeze through Australian customs and arrive in Tasmania within 7-10 days 🤔
Refreshed my wife and kids Dharco pants on sale for a reasonable amount off the usual price (no comment on the usual price). They had the correct sizes too.
Not sure WTF is going on but they just got delivered on a Sunday too, which is unheard of in Tasmania.
Meanwhile I just freeball in old...
Well, I fucked up my Z2 ride today. I just seem to go full retard when there is someone in front of me. This time it was the ‘Tour of Watopia’ group ride. I’m starting to think staring at numbers on a head unit might be a better option…
Yeah, that could be the problem. I do B pacer rides, climb portal and B races, so I mainly hit ‘sweet spot’ and above. I think I might need to do less intensity maybe? And perhaps not ride a couple of days a week.
But I just got the fire socks!
I think I have hit peak Zwift. I have been on it for 6 months and have had a great time but my performance hasn’t really improved that much, based on power metrics. FTP up 10W or so and that’s about it. And that’s after 6-8 hours per week on top of my usual...
