MC Cyclery, you guys rock!

In all my years of biking, I’ve never had a bike shop to call my own. Sure, I’ve had my bikes serviced at various bike shops, but I can’t say I’ve ever felt comfortable leaving them there for various reasons. Well, this has all changed with buying the Salsa from MC Cyclery. The main reason(click to read the full post)

The Salsa Casseroll Single Speed

For a few months I’ve been wanting a single speed road bike that I could use to get around the Inner West, as well as commute to work on. I looked at converting road bikes, but then I’d have problems with chain tension. Second hand ebay bikes can be very hit and miss in their(click to read the full post)

Dirtworks is getting closer

I think I’d decided on a bike/setup for it. Details are as follows. As for which bike, the old Giant hardtail has gotten the nod. It’ll be fitted out with raceface evolve stem and dues xc risers. With ODI Rogue Lockons and Avid Levers completing the cockpit. If when I arrive on the morning there’s(click to read the full post)

I’m not on facebook anymore

The title of this post could have been, ‘Mike, you should be proud…‘, but I decided to go with the slightly more informative version above. If you wanna talk to me outside Facebook, leave a comment somewhere or send me an email. Mobile telephones are also an option, as is smoke signals. Bye Facebook!~

Crossposts galore…

If you go have a look at SavvyCat, it covers Train’s awesome spectacular and amazing cat run… Linky. Jarod did it all, really. I kind of watched and encouraged and got excited. Yay!

I’m thinking I’d like to learn more about graphic design. Does anyone know of a good graphic design course that could be completed part time? (I don’t have the funds to support me being a full time student and paying the rent) The only one I can see around in Sydney is Shillington College, and(click to read the full post)

Diary of a Diplodocus.

Awhile ago while researching stuff for SavvyCat I stumbled across this really cool print on Etsy. After a couple of weeks of convincing Jarod it would look wonderful on our wall, I purchased it. I then handed it over to KORU framing studio on Enmore Road (also conveniently close to the Cat Protection Society), and(click to read the full post)

An inadequate guide to gig photography.

This week at work I had to do a presentation at a big team meeting about what I do when I’m not at work. ‘The Internet’ was too big a presentation, and ‘Sleep’ wasn’t very interesting, so I did the below. It’s meant to be amusing, not technically accurate. There was talking that went with(click to read the full post)

Help the RSPCA and sponsor Train!

What do you mean you don’t read savvycat? That post about the RSPCA Millionpurrs was pretty informative. Do you feel generous today? Would you like to support the RSPCA without having to get off the chair/couch/floor? Excellent. Train has her own profile on RSPCA Millionpurrs. If you like, you can head over there and sponsor(click to read the full post)
