I’ve been enjoying some fast MUni on the KH36 while collecting more footage to be used in the final edit of the KH36 Rollercoaster MUni movie. Just a couple of seconds left to work out and it will be done. (more…)

I headed back to the MTB trails in Wattle Flat, this time on the 36’er. It’s all fun single track but the section I was looking forward to most was the trail that snakes down a long gully, swooping back and forth into a dry creek bed many times. I’d ridden it on the 24 GUni and was interested to see what it would be like on the 36’er. (more…)

Huge fun today on the 36’er. A sunny day turned to rain, the single track slicked up, the big wheel cranked some turns, and I managed to get caught out by the same piece of flooded single track, same UPD, same bloody knee … same loser! 😛 (more…)

The last couple of rides has got me feeling the love for off roading on the 36’er big time – the momentum the big wheel carries through the trail is a hoot, especially when combined with cranks a little too short to be relaxing – but the 24 GUni isn’t so keen on being replaced as the favorite ride.

I’ve been enjoying getting back into the KH36 lately.  It’s easy to forget how efficient the big old 36’er fly wheel is and how fast and smooth it rolls through terrain compared to smaller wheels. Uphill or on the flat, trail it slightly and it rolls auto-magically. All up, it’s a load of fun to ride off road. I knew that already, but I guess I’d become too obsessed with the 24 GUni and needed reminding 😛 (more…)

Had a fun ride with Indi along the Campbells Creek Bike Track. Most of the track is in good condition even though it had been flooded, it’s mainly sections around the bridges that are washed away and need repair. Perfect timing too, arriving at the old trestle bridge just as the steam train passed over. (more…)
