New Bikeway Section

Can't believe i haven't posted this pic already. Took it the first time i rode along the newly completed section of Brisbane's Bicentennial Bikeway. It wasn't quite the first day of operation, but it was close. I like that there's a dad-and-daughter combination trying it out :)


There are still renovations on the final stretch (to the city) but it's uninterrupted travel all the way through to the Go-Between Bridge - which is also currently the scenic detour for city-bound riders.

Oh, and the metal thing in the bottom left corner is a drink fountain. Very handy to have these at regular intervals, for a refreshing rest and a drink :)

No Regrets

Like the t-shirt i showed you the other week, i saw this one online. It caught my eye because it's a very similar design to the great one i have.


I think it's a good summary of the advantages of going car free. "No fuel tank. No emissions. No oil wars. No regrets."

Break Free From Traffic

I've been riding to work again recently, and it's a refreshing experience. So i was struck by the truth of this sign (that's been making it's way around the internet).

School's Back

I'm sure it's back-to-school week. I've been riding to my current workplace (in the city centre) for 2 weeks now. But now it's different. I feel faster. :)

I'm actually not. I'm just cruising along in my bikeway / path / lane at my normal rate. But with parents back on the road again, i feel speedy because i'm keeping pace (or passing) the peak-hour traffic.

Burn Fat - Save Money

Saw this t-shirt through an online ad. It reads "This one runs on fat and saves you money. This one runs on money and makes you fat."


It's a fairly obvious choice isn't it? Even without taking the planet factor into account. ;)
