After bordering on six years of active service, it’s time to retire my first ever set of road cycling shoes. Picked up these @maviccycling shoes from an independent bike shop back in Edinburgh (can’t remember the name) - had just bought my first road bike, complete with a set of SPD-SL pedals and didn’t have a clue (tbh I mainly liked the yellow flashes on these!). I totally lucked out with my choice. They have served me well over the years but there’s only so many times you can glue the sole back on! Even though I’ve gone for a different brand for their replacement I can definitely recommend #mavic to anyone who’s looking. #cyclist #cyclistlife #cycling #road #roadshoes #spd #clipin

After almost two months of no riding for medical reasons, I caved and took the 29er out for a gentle spin this morning. Soooo good to finally be back in the saddle - if all goes well the next 12 months are going to be awesome for cycling. #cyclist #cycling #cyclistlife #recovery #fromwhereireide #29er #trek #xcaliber9

I know it’s like 9 months away, but pretty stoked to have the @noosaclassic confirmed on my 2019 ride calendar. Going for the 160km Maxi Classic this time - hopefully there will be less thunderstorms than last time! #cyclistlife #cycling

First proper outing for my new @trekbikes X-Caliber yesterday, taking in a stretch of the @brisbanevalley_railtrail - can’t wait to get back out there again 👌🏻 #cyclist #cyclistlife #mtb #mtblife #xcmtb #29er #bvrt #sundayfunday #weekendvibes #fromwhereiride #trekbikes #cycling

N + 1 Throwback to last Saturday when I picked up this XC weapon from @trekbicyclewoolloongabba. With all the excitement of the @noosaclassic last weekend, and then traveling interstate all week for work, I’ve not had a chance to enjoy my early birthday present - looking forward to getting some dirt all up in there! @trekbikes #trek #xcaliber9 #hardtail #hardtailmtb #29er #cycling #cyclist #cyclistlife #thatcolourtho #newbike #newbikefeels #happyfathersday

Noosa Classic 2018 - done ✅ 120km of hills, rain, thunderstorms and laughs. Great job @noosaclassic - count me in for 2019! #noosaclassic #cycling #cyclist #cyclistlife #sunshinecoast

Should be an interesting morning out riding the @noosaclassic today 😳⛈☔️🚲 #cycling #cyclistlife #damp #noosaclassic #sunshinecoast #sundayfunday

Gentle 30k ride to break in some new tyres before heading up the coast tomorrow for the @noosaclassic. By all accounts it’s going to be a damp one! Really happy with the @pirelli P-Zero Velo tyres as recommended by @pedalheadscycles #cycling #cyclist #cyclistlife #strava #fromwhereiride #pzerovelo

Woke up bright and early for the @pedalheadscycles shop ride. Feeling a little tight in the chest, so with my pericarditis flaring up last week post-Velothon I decided to go for a gentler solo ride out to Scarborough where I could focus on keeping my heart rate in a lower range, rather than keeping pace with the squad. Was rewarded with a beautiful crisp morning and fantastic views our over a still Moreton Bay. I even got to join the PedalHeads Inter 2 group for about 10 seconds as they passed me in Scarborough 😜

Blue skies, gentle breeze and a schooner of @brouhahabrewery NZ Pale Ale - perfect conditions for the inaugural @brewdogchaingang Moreton Bay Chapter ride.

Not exactly a massive turnout, but not too shabby considering we’re essentially a regional chapter in a country with no @brewdogofficial bars (yet...). Already planning Ride #2, and how to raise a bit more awareness for it.
