Another dream upgrade to the hippie mobile are Shimano XTR Trail pedals. They sure are mighty purdy, beautifully made, the click-in and release action is sweet, as is the extra support. Now the only thing to do is… plough them into a rock or two! (more…)

Things have been kinda quiet in hippie land the last few weeks. I’ve been heading down to Melbourne once a week for treatment on my neck and as part of that have been doing my best to behave. On the neck movement scale of 1-4 it rated 0-1 initially, now up to 2. It still feels fairly ordinary but the feeling of pressure in my head has started to ease, which is great since it’s been that way since June! Few more weeks to go yet. (more…)
