Max's Miscellaneous Musings

Before I decided it was time to lose weight, I never really knew just how hideous I was at 95Kg.  Today, a friend sent me a photo she took of me at a work xmas get-together:   Sweet merciful crap.  I never knew, I honestly never knew. So now, wh… more »

... and the weather is beautiful.  So why aren't I out riding?  :-/ more »

I should be out riding The Noble Steed, but I have found an oh-so-convenient excuse not to.  Yesterday, it was because it was cold and windy.  Today, it is because I've realised the bike doesn't have a bell anymore (recall that I stole it to put it on Th… more »

So, here's a bit of a braindump of CQ 2009. Day 1: Toowoomba to Goombungee - 37Km Getting out of the start area was a shocker. 1000 cyclists plus lots of red lights equals average speeds under 10Kph. Most people remained unclicked, and just pushe… more »
