A #realbike #commutebike #everydaybike #notashowbike #fitsmefinebike - (for the geeks) now with 32mm #panaracergravelkings
#fromthefrontdoor #grippyrockriding #granite - a meander around trails and open rock areas - all without meeting anyone else and less than 200m of road :-) #johnforrestnationalpark #westernaustralia #earlyriderbelter #steeppush back up the drive though...
#lastweekend was spent in most excellent company - #climbing #walking and #rockclimbing #seacliffs in the #stirlingranges #porongurup (not shown) and #westcapehowe #westernaustralia
#ridingwithfriends #lastofsummer on #rottnestisland - we had a day on the mostly #trafficfree roads with hills to ride and beaches to dig (not to mention ice creams to eat - no pictured). #earlyriderbelter #goingtoneedgearsoon
#summersundays #deepwatersoloing #swanriver #blackwallreach Showing friends recently arrived from colder climes the local knowledge at a gentle pace (#timetochat)
#ridinghome #commutebybike Rising steadily from the coastal plain into the #perthhills on the #heritagerailtrail through the #johnforrestnationalpark with the sunset behind me. The new commute is good :-).
#ridetowork #gravelride - the first 5km of my new ride to work is like this :-) #hardlife #johnforrestnationalpark #heritagerailtrail #westernaustralia
#weekendaway #rockclimbing at #westcapehowe with a late night arrival, unexpectedly amazing weather and so much #southernocean and #granite to go at. #westernaustralia #seacliffclimbing #greatmates
#winter beach fun - an all too short visit to #borthygest with his cousins to play with.
#firstsnow #firstsledging A great morning on #simonside with what was left of the snow. Much fun was had until hands and toes got too cold despite borrowed warm clothing (snow not really being a West Australian thing) #summerholidays
#needtotaketimetolookup :-). Riding through forests doesn’t do much for GPS signal but that’s about the only downside #mundabiddi #westernaustralia #valleyofthegiants #walpole
