I decided to ride to work on my basic 21 speed mountain bike from Merrylands to North Ryde (Macquarie Park). The morning ride was fun. I left at 5:30am and arrived at work 7:10am. The early morning rise was nice and travelling around the Parramatta river through Olympic Park was very picturesque. Total distance of the ride was 24km.
The weather is staring to look ugly and I hope it remains fine until I get home.
Overall this is something I will endeavour to try again. Its good for fitness and health.
Yesterday my son decided to take on one of the local hill (like Evil Knievel) at our local park on his little scooter. After I told him we are leaving. Starting to pack up he come flying down the path.

The Hill
Having made it a quarter of the way down he lost control and the front wheel started to wobble and came crashing head first onto the pavement. Leaving the below damage.

The fall seems to worst the outcome. Blood everywhere, but mostly a few bumps and scatches. Spent four hours at the local Children’s Hospital. A few bandaids, antiseptic, and glue on the cut on his forehead and off home. What a way to finish the day.
Just like all kids his age you would think it was just a scratch. He is still the same and wants to get straight back to scootering.

It’s been 9 months and I finally decided to go off my learners and get my fully unrestricted riders license. I can now really give this beast a run for its money.
With the cost of petrol it has now become a more affordable form of transport. Just have to watch out for the idiot motorists.
