hey guys, me and my mate tom ( we made the reverse tandem bike thingy ) have started a website, it's not too crash hot at the moment but we are going to improve it in the next few days. have a look at it and register!
Have you gone on any rides with Rockley and the rest of them? I used to be a regular and I will be 'now that my custom frame is done' (http://tinyurl.com/jhhr2). The rides are a lot of fun. It's good to see more muni riders in Brisbane.
nah we've never gone on any rides with anybody. i've had my unicycle for 8 days now ( i got it off gary www.unicycles.com.au ) and am able to ride it fairly competently in a straight line for hundreds of metres. we are currently in the process of designing a 32m long bike. we are attempting to break the world record for longest bicycle.
yeah that'd be great thanks. i've got a nimbus 24" and 125mm cranks. i get the feeling these are way too short for hilly stuff. they are quite good for commuting to and from school. I live right on the top of mt cootha in the gap. i walk out of my driveway and every trail is downhill.
When did the top of Mt Cootha move to The Gap? 🙂 I live in The Gap, just off Settlement Road near the tennis courts before the hill to Samford. Where exactly do you live? I'm a little confused. This will be very handy for you...we ride on Mt Cootha.
well if you follow settlement road along till you get to waterworks road and keep goin through you get to pain road, turn right at pain road and you go out to the "new estate" area. you get to the roundabout at the end, turn left, and go up the huge hill and turn right onto highwood road (most people know it as gap creek road). i live on the highest point of that road. you get a nice view back over the gap. you might have seen it, it's the house with the red roof and palm tree out the front of the house.
Is that the new house? I remember when that was being built. You're very luck to live there. By the top of Mt Cootha I thought you meant the ring road around the very top where the TV towers are. We usually meet in carpark lower down (further along) on (what I always thought was) Gap Creek Rd.
Wow, that's great how close we live together. Do you think you'll get into any trials riding or just muni?
There are lots of Australians on the forums here these days.
i may get into trials but at the moment i'm focusing on muni cause of the convenience of my location. i'm on 10 acres up here so i'm quite well equipped for muni. the only thing i need now is heaps more practice
Hey guys, the site now has some videos and lots more pictures on it of us unicycling after school today. The site is only a few days old and still in the making - if anybody has anything they could suggest to help improve the site it would be greatly appreciated.
