Slightly numbed by Melburn's cold snap.

INSIDE: Street shootings, Courierisms, Shifterbikes, and things to keep you warm.

Also, things you DIDN'T know about the new site.

Le Tour starts tonight - it already reaks of another Tour De Farce.

Readers Wives.

CA snagged this baby Colnago for his beau - and left us with a pile of C-Record era parts to build it with.

Not all ladies like being in the drops, so it features Nitto risers for a comfortable upright riding position.

Key to any partners build 'A Happy Wife / Girlfriend is a Happy Life''

Put your aesthetic reservations aside, and make sure they enjoy the ride by feeling safe* and comfortable.

Send in yours for the readers wife of the week.  onlinefyx(at)gmail.com

* Building a brakeless track bike for your partner is NOT good for relationship longevity.

Pedal Portage

Fridays mean I'm rolling around with a phone in one hand, box in the other, dodging cars, delivering goods.

It also means Melburn is in store for bad weather.

A good courier once told me that there is no such thing as bad weather - just bad clothing.

I have to agree. When are dressed for battling the elements - BRING IT ON! 

Rain heavier, blow harder.  I'm ready.

Stuck my head into Shifterbikes on the way home to pick up parts for the 'readers wife' build above, and BOY o BOY do they have some sweet projects coming up.

Raising the DROP bar!

Pogliaghi Pista, Llewellyn Strada, Colnago Master, Merckxs and some that'll just have to wait for.
