Great winter weather and a bunch of riders, the third monthly MUni ride was a hoot! Lots of laughs, no broken bones, great success 🙂 (more…)

Jack Frost

The first clear sub zero night in a few weeks produced a heavy frost, like a light snow fall. Being Saturday there was time to sleep in a little, then head down to the local recreation reserve with the 29’er for a quick spin on the crunchy trails before the frost melted away. (more…)

I headed out to Mount Macedon today looking for a off road loop suitable for the next monthly MUni ride on August 9th. The single track MTB trails at Woodend would be great to use but are just too wet at this time of the year, and with the busy MTB weekend traffic on the trails maybe not the best place for new MUni riders. Maybe later! (more…)

Had a fun ride around Lake Daylesford today with Joell, Nicky, Corey and Oscar, all on 20" wheels which turns even a relatively short ride into a good workout. I've…
