Reelight…

Saturday, 19 September 2009 02:00

Ok… by now you’re convinced that I have a “light fetish” or something (which may be true) but this Danish light DID win a GOLD at the recent Eurobike 2009 and was the only bike light to do so. It generates its own power, eliminating the need to buy and/or replace batteries all the time, and [...]

Sam Whittingham is a world record holding cyclist nine times over if memory serves me correctly and he’d almost certainly not finished. And he’s a Canadian lad to boot. This video is not about his amazing run at Battle Mountain this week; raising the world record even higher. You can follow all that at Recumbents.com. The [...]

Video: Blue Sky Days…

Thursday, 17 September 2009 14:00

Autumn Leaves featuring Faraò, Durham & Zunino Penny Jean has a brand spanking new battery, one of those LiFePO4 ones that is small but powerful. So much for me turning around to see if she’s coming… it’s more likely her stopping occasionally to let the “old boy” catch up. I’ve had almost as good a morning [...]
