I have watched this twice... Thank you for posting it. I have sent it to my friends too.

If I am going around a corner, I drag the cleat along the road. Pedestrians sure know I am coming

Many Thanks - I did.

All the best mate, that second day was a tough one... do some stretches before you start out. I reckon that second day was like 459km (Merredin to Norseman) if you took the Great Eastern Hwy.

Perfecto .... just ordered. (the girlfriend caught me buying it "but you already have a helmet, why do you need another?") I have been looking for that for so long... it was a no brainer. I even said to her... but the old helmet doesn't offer me any protection... and after a few years it should...

Well, crank size does seem to be a very personal issue. I can understand for and against. Maria Parker is still using relatively large crank size but from her blog she is thinking of going downsize to 165. I would love to try 150's, I guess next time I get over to America I will head up to...

Having fun eh! I bet the rest of the A-team are wheezing! Guess the only way of beating superman is drafting off another V. You will have to entice another member of A team to convert;)

Front wheel flat is a bit of a show stopper. I carry a plastic tie so I can fasten the derailleur to the fork so that it doesn't all fall apart when I pull the axle rod out. I do this also when I clean the cassette. I have filled both tires with slime, since doing it - I haven't had a flat.

Honestly.... AWESTRUCK ... Haaaaa It looks too good to be ridden!

Interesting, Try sprinting up a hill, sitting up. This adds a little more dimension for sure. All part of a 64km ride in 2.5 hours ... well I stopped for a coffee and a beer, after all it was 28c. I cycled to a Salinas (desalination plant), lucky for me I saw many Flamingos and on the way back...

Welcome RojoRacing , You have had quite a start, I have a yellow V 2.0, a most beautiful machine. I decided for comfort as I train. Luv what you did to the mirror but I am ok with the standard small. I noticed if you put the rear brake to the higher setting, you can invert your bag that's...

Haaaa if you have something on your mind at the end of the day and you have to come back down the 2.5 mile hill you will soon forget it. Going down the hills is something else. At the beginning I had to keep on telling myself, "Relax... Relax... Relax. Relax the shoulders. Relax the grip on the...

I use a GPS offline mapping system app called "Here maps" from Nokia. I just downloaded the whole of Australia and pinned Freo to Newcastle. Minus toll roads and motorways. It gives me 47days and 5 hours if you walk it. (4125km). I have found this app very good as it doesn't suck the battery...

Gosh, epic ride for sure. I enjoyed what trplay had with moose ... even wrote it down Apidura saddle pack and serfs 550 light system. Try doing the riding whilst its not so hot and pace yourself mid-day. All the best for sure. I have been to Australia many times. Its a most beautiful place. Take...

Hey Abbott, SigrD and you did absolutely Great and I mean that with a capital G. I enjoyed seeing your pictures too. I am amazed after a ride how much minerals and salts come out when I wash my gear. On a long climb like that it must be really really difficult to judge. Sure you can hydrate like...

Hey... how much are the moose pillows? (winner, winner, tofu dinner sounds good to me :p)

I am curios with that bit of plastic across the bridge of your handlebars. Is it a pocket for food? Or is it to deflect air and insects from going into your face? Probably both. Does it take away any view of the road? I haven't put a cyclometer on the V as I think its important not to be...

I am out every day. Still boiling hot. Have to leave early. That Vendetta turns heads. No one can quite understand it. Funny eh... I have my brother with me for a week or two and he said to me after the ride... "I was hoping to keep up with you on the hills". Congrats to Larry and Jim; well...

It looks as though there is a cover on the front vent of the helmet. Do you wear it open or closed? Is the ventilation good and how heavy is the helmet. My existing helmet is 240gms and I expect the Casco speedtime to be 600gms. As you say ... the head is the most important part of the body...

I bought one of the last Vendetta's and when Cruzbike announced the new V20 in red I was a bit miffed. But the build I have is a perfect joy to ride. I love the chrome on the V2.0 ; it just exudes quality. I love the brightness of the frame. I think its important to be seen and I think yellow...
