The Vibe

At KASIconcepts, palm trees are just about second to bikes in order of importance. Here is a snap from my recent trip to Hawaii, Waimea Bay. Feel free to send in your own pics - of serene palm tree-scapes and keep the vibe alive...

HALLOWEEN RACE

The Night of the Living Shred was a howling success! We all got into the spirit, as these checkpoint photos by Brad Serls attest. Congrats to Brendan for taking it out as he did, "dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight..." apparently. Boo to the motorbike fag cops who busted me within meters of the finish. Many thanks to Sammy D for bringing it all together.
Bring on next year!

THE NIGHT OF THE LIVING SHRED!!!

It's on again! the Halloween allycat is back this Saturday the 31st meeting place will be at u1/3 Aberdeen st in the devilles car park comps start at 10pm and the race kicks off on the stroke of midnight.
DRESS UP OR DIE!!!

brisbaneoutdoorgear

Benee our good mate put me onto these gnarly straps out of Brisbane, I'v been using them for a few months now and I'm pretty much sold on them. the brisbaneoutdoorgear Strap-Ons are a highly adjustable very heavy duty alternative to normal straps and cages. The straps are constructed from highly abrasion resistant materials (Thermoplastic Polyurethane used for hovercraft bladders) and Velcro glued and stitched together with a pretty hardcore sewing machine. the Stap-Ons are really well designed the large area above the foot gives you a really secure feeling on the pedal almost like wearing clip-ons they can be fitted to most BMX or MTB style flat pedals and with all the adjustability you can rock whatever kicks ya want no matter how phat they may be. What i like most about these is that i haven't had to touch them since the first day i set them up they are just too solid and they seem to be lasting a lot longer than any strap/cage setup i'v run in the past and cost alot less too.

GLOBALGUTZ RESULTZ

1st - Bretto
2nd - Simo
3rd - Derek

Ah, what a race. Actually, the most crazy race I've ever been a part of. Terrible weather: a windy, wet, stormy night. I was impressed that 8 people turned up, but I'm certain that everyone who did race benefited from the experience!
The opening stages thru the ill-advised King's Park section of the route were treacherous (zero light and slippy) and I'm glad no one was hurt, most of all myself. Bretto and I were eventually able to forge ahead in the dicey conditions and my hat goes off to him. He blew thru the Bennett/Adl Tce intersection, cars oncoming, and I was unwilling to follow. He is a crazy bastard, although he wasn't riding his Maniac.

This is the route as described by the men themselves:

• Down Walcott (downhill) to Lord St (downhill)
• Left at Edward St concrete factory
• Over the Claisebrook overpass
• Down Kensington into East Parade towards roundabout
• Left onto Royal… Travalgar (uphill)… Waterloo (sweeping downhill)

• Up Rokeby (uphill)

Sounds like an eventful ride! I shall film as my body should be up and running by then. I wanna encourage people to come along as this type of thing is most enjoyable with numbers, looks great on camera too...

-Ride Report-

The Steel Road Bike Gang assembled last Wednesday afternoon. Members included Shauny, Kaspy, Jackie Boy and Simo. It was that shared opinion of the group that we appeared pleasantly Euro. Conditions for the ride were ideal during the temperate late hours of a sunny day. As we rode south along the river the water was calm and shimmering, an agreeable indicator that the headwind - typical of a sea breeze - was minimal. This meant however that while the early stages of the ride would be undertaken in near perfect weather, we would also have to miss out on the monster tailwind that can deliver you along the Oceanside return route with max out speed and cadence - the highpoint of the SRBG experience.

TRACK

Tuesday night is track night. Come down to Midvale SpeedDome if you're interested (bring a nice, big gear) and you'll be runnin' on the boards in no time. One of W.A. Cycling's biggest track events, the Westral Wheelrace, is on this Saturday.
