Quick pre-dusk ride around the suburb on the 29er before cracking open a well-deserved @modusoperandibrewing Sonic Prayer IPA to commence the evening’s refreshments #wattsbeforehops #earnit #cyclistlife #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #ipa #fromwhereiride #outsideisfree #greenenergy #trekbikes

Finally got back out to the @brisbanevalley_railtrail this morning after about a year and a half. Fernvale to Coominya, and back again - solid 40km banked (probably the furthest I’ve ridden since last August!). #mtb #xc #trekbikes #cyclistlife #brisbanevalleyrailtrail #outsideisfree #fromwhereiride

TFW the postie drops by with an unexpected package and you remember that back in December ‘18 you signed yourself up for a 162km bike ride that’s happening in less than 5 weeks. . Equal parts 😳 and 🎉 . @noosaclassic . #cyclistlife #cycling #noosaclassic #bikelife #instacycling

Apparently this was seven years ago today - a group of friends and I had just cycled 1,600km from Land’s End to John o’Groats in the UK to raise money for @cr_uk . . Good times!

Behold the face of the man who has barely touched a bike in the past few weeks (illness, family/work commitments etc) and decided to squeeze in a cheeky 30km on the hardtail today. . Even so, lovely day for it! . #cyclist #cyclistlife #fromwhereiride #outsideisfree #mtb #knackered #wymtm #baaw

Stoked to have found these @tastinz Smooshed Wholefood Balls at my local @aldiaustralia store. For the past few weeks they have been my go to for nutrition whilst out on the bike. Delicious, compact, clean energy - I find I digest them much better than any energy gels. The peanut butter and caramel are my current jam. . . #tastinz #cleanenergy #wholefood #cyclist #cycling #nutrition #trainingwithpurpose #sportsnutrition #cyclistlife #ridebikesgetoutside #yum #nomnom #instasnacks

Through a combination of the Instagram algorithm and Gmail’s spam settings I missed the fact that it was the @cycleofgiving today, so decided to do another self-directed 💯km ride this morning. . . Four laps of the @translinkqld Redcliffe Peninsula Line cycleway - a great rolling surface and more than a few hills means it was far from monotonous. Definitely adding this as a regular fixture to my riding. Has also given me an idea for an additional challenge for 2019 - more to follow once I’ve thought about the logistics a little more. . . #latergram #wymtm #ridebikesgetoutside #outsideisfree #fromwhereiride #redcliffepeninsula #cyclist #cyclistlife #centurysunday

Century Sunday 💯 . . Banked my first 100+ km ride of 2019 this morning - actually my first since the Noosa Classic last August. . . Bit of a last minute decision - wanted to see how I’d fare over a longer distance with the last two months of training under my belt. Really happy with my performance - especially over the last quarter. Even though my legs were definitely feeling fatigued I somehow managed to ride faster and stronger than ever 🤷🏻‍♂️ . . My only regret - finishing my ride at about 9am, it’s far too early to crack open a cold beer (it is, right?). Had to make do with a coffee instead. . . Looking forward to getting more of these in on a regular basis - next milestone will be the Imperial Century - 100 miles (160km). . . #wymtm #cyclist #cyclistlife #fromwhereiride #outsideisfree #100km #centurysunday #brisbane #sunrise #gofarnotfast
