Ride Photos

General Post your ride

Given that the weather is getting (slightly) better and everyone is riding more and 90% of you seem to have pretty good photography (or photoshop) skills, I thought i’d (re)start a thread for photos taken while on a ride or commuting.

  • In order to keep it on track, don’t bother posting anything unless you have a photo to contribute or a hilarious story related to one of the photos. Also throw in a brief caption to avoid the inevidable ‘where is this?’ questions.

(I think someone started a similar thread a while back but I couldn’t find it.)

and to kick it off, and oldie but a goodie. - Benzy getting his bike cleaned by a street cleaner after racing Dirty Deeds #3.

Ooohh. I like this thread idea (that will be HEAVILY moderated).

One Saturday morning in June we rode up this hill (Coach Road in Auldana, SA for those playing at home).

Chipper was a bit hungover, and climbing didn’t agree with him…

stickied for brilliance, but yeah, jln is right. the ban stick weighs heavy over this thread.

Awesome! totally agree re: HEAVILY moderated -

Pt Lonsdale Loop - about a year ago. Look at this image Sydney to Melbourne riders, and get used to it.

I’d just like to say that the warby trail was when i met Benzy. i have never been the same since.

Looking back across the valley after narrowly escaping the killer cows, and realising that riding through cows’ fields is really hard work…

bit of a repost for some of you that saw this one already…

me, gene and liam out on Ridge Rd near Whittlesea. the line on “trusty” google maps indicated this was quite a major road. it turned to gravel within 100mtrs and got quite hilly. fuck it was good fun though!!

Here’s a tip for everyone - preview your posts to make sure the images show up properly. I’ve fixed the only post I’m going to in this thread. Any more will probably just get deleted.
