On a trip to Melbourne a few weeks ago I came across a pair of Speedplay Drillium pedals and they’ve have been on my mind ever since – the larger platform would be really useful on the 36 GUNI which has become my main off road uni, and along with light weight dang these pedals look awesome. (more…)
My second set of Ay Up lights arrived the other day. It was finally time to test them! I’d ordered a narrow light to replace the intermediate light on my helmet, with the intermediate light now being fitted to my XC bars, resulting in a typical MTB night Ay Up setup. (more…)
Unfortunately nothing I do seems to stop my Schlumpf hub from eating Moment cranks. By that I mean eventually a crank (on either side) will progressively move close to the frame to the point of almost touching it – at which time I replace the cranks rather than damage either myself, the frame or the hub. I am now onto my third pair of cranks, which is a concern as Moment cranks aren’t cheap. (more…)
Could the KH36 GUNI be the perfect uni? Maybe! I have really been enjoying riding my KH36 GUNI. (more…)
With the unusually hot summer here in Victoria I’ve been riding more in the evenings and nights, which has meant upgrading my lights to something a little more suitable for uni and safer to ride by. (more…)
Over 6 months of wear and tear the Kris Holm Gloves continue to do the job! (more…)
Another favorite ride of mine is the Trailer Track Loop – a fun mix of dirt road, fire trails, bush and single track, climbs and descents in the Wombat Forest, Victoria Australia. The highlight is the descent down to the Loddon River on the Trailer Track which drops down through the bush to the river, trees backlit by the low sun in the west, with the hill progressively getting steeper and steeper.

Like a lot of things related to unicycling, the hardest part of messing with Magura brakes is the decision to finally give it a go. Cutting, fitting and bleeding hydraulic brakes is really no big deal – a jump mount on a 36 is far more scarey! (more…)
