it's been quiet......has he been abducted by Aliens?.....

Or was I?...

Well, there went the end of 2015....






Then came 2016.....


Life continued,


plenty of riding, mostly just daily jaunts on the weekends....no major tours ....or upheavals for that matter, which was good.


So, this is Sydney....


navigating Sydney Cycling infrastructure in a velomobile can be somewhat depressing....

(Canterbury Road Underpass)

  

The "share path" here is just on 400mm (14") wide....there's barely enough room to walk through, let alone try & ride a regular bike.  The "ceiling" height is just under 180cm (6')  as well...its a tight fit.

In order to get the RV through I have to stand in front, lift it up onto its rear wheel & try and balance the weight as I walk backwards, minding not to belt my head on the "ceiling"... I stand at 186cm.



The alternative, at the moment, is to cross a very busy road,.....




BUT there's building works going on....the ramp is 500mm wide......urgh!   The RV is 800mm wide..
So, the underpass it is.
