KH36 Arrives
My KH36 arrived and wow, that is one big sucker of a wheel! I’ve been working on the Jump Mount on the KH29 with the, so the first thing to face up to was jump mounting the 36 – Tadaa! (more…)

The Great Dividing Trail runs from Bacchus Marsh to Blackwood, to Daylesford (branching to Ballarat), to Castlemaine, to Bendigo – over 280km of trail mainly through forested areas. The GDT was initially envisioned as a walking trail but has now evolved into a multi use trail, including MTB and unicycles! (more…)
We sold our beloved 1977 Kombi which I had to drop off at Sailors Falls. I took the 29″ with me and rode back to Glenlyon, ~31km through the Wombat Forest. It was my first long ride off road on the 29 with 125 cranks, and overall was great fun! (more…)
Had a great ride on the 29 today – a ~27km loop from home to Lyonville Springs, through the Wombat Forest via Toris Road, Big Al Track, Swaby Lane and back via Loddon River Road, Kangaroo Creek Road. The ride time was just under three hours. It’s definitely time to swap down from 150 cranks on the KH29 for longer rides! (more…)
I love my KH29’er, well… except for the Kenda Klaw*! 2007 KH 29’s shipped with the Kenda Klaw which is an ok tire for light off road and hybrid use but isn’t confidence inspiring for anything else off road – it feels like an overly narrow tire. In June I started to look for better tire options for the 29’er, starting with the PanaRacer Rampage 2.35″. (more…)
I’m really enjoying exploring the trails in the nearby Wombat Forest on the KH29. Crazy to think we have lived here so many years and I didn’t know many of these existed. My favorite rides atm centre around a series of tracks that loop back and forth over the Loddon River between Glenlyon and Wheatsheaf. (more…)
The KH24 has been a blast, but for longer off road rides a bigger wheel is the way the go! Enter the Kris Holm 29er. (more…)
