Managed to the office 2 - 3 times a week with a couple of night rides as well. I purchased some decent lights which meant riding at night along the trails isn't a problem anymore. Problem is, everytime I've gone out in the dark I've got a puncture!! Not being able to find the hole in the dark has meant some long walks home! It’s been going great!!

Still keeping at it? I've done a fair bit of riding over the years. It's the only way to get from A to B .... and C, D, E, F all the way through to Z. So how’s the riding been going?

On a good day, it was just fantastic. The worst days were when a southerly in the morning was replaced by a stiff nor' easter in the afternoon- I lived north of the city. Now I live in Narrabri in northern NSW. It's flat, but very spread out because of the several creeks and flood pains that pass through the town. There are few buses or bike tracks, and selling the car is definitely not an option!

I'm about to sell my car entirely, as we have found that we don't need it any more. Most parts of inner Melbourne are great for cycling. Just some attitude shifts in drivers who most seem arrogant towards cyclists, and it would be perfect. Keep it up mate! Bikers of the world unite!
