Carrying the world on your shoulders

The first time I was allowed to ride around the block it was a personal milestone, of unparralled adventure.

Since my first 'epic' I've never looked back and each time I plan a ride, part of the 'planning' involves making it more challenging, memorable and sometimes even forgetable.

Time to reassess your skills.

Leave it up to Andrew Dickey to make you feel inadequate about your cycling prowess.

Inside line.

Open throttle. Full gas.

Some shots from the Cyclones training at Hisense in preparation for what promises to be an amazing Track World Championships in Melburn.

The Keirin, Sprint, Team Pursuits and Madison are all set to be electric contests.

Australian vs GB in the team pursuit. Sir Chris Hoy vs Shane Perkins in the Keirin. Queen Anna Meares vs Victoria Pendleton any time they cross paths.

Gear up.

Darren Baum and The Chocolate Factory

This may require a full two cups of tea, or perhaps two sittings.

Darren Baum is BAUM. This is a custom frame junkies equivalent to the Chocolate Factory, complete with a river of ti tubes all ready to be formed, drilled and welded into a everlasting gobstopper of cycling.

Desktop with a view

In preparation for the online earthquake that FYXO experiences each year about this time it was also brought to my attention that some of the galleries had 'dead' links.

Using my internet prowess I have resurrected them to help you through this hump day.
