Carbon bicycles are getting older and new bikes are getting cheaper; and so an industry-wide effort is needed to better understand the risks associated to defective and damaged bikes; and to make safety inspections more accessible. #cyclingnews #cycling road.cc/content/feature/how-…
Please tell me Americans believe Trump's nonsense... statements like "we have the best results, my people told me before i came on stage" and "the best borders in the world" are just nonsensical. This guy cannot see past his own obsession with his image. #presidentialdebate

No! He was one of the good ones. Tragic.

There is really only one choice if you want a government with a vision, who wants to grow the economy and address the state’s priorities at the same time. Fingers crossed Tasmanians are smart enough to see that today. #tasvotes #taspol @TasLiberal

Well said @WhateleySEN. Articulates perfectly what many Aussies feel, and what many @ECB_cricket fans are missing. #TheAshes2023
"Cry me a river, England!" Gerard Whateley isn't copping the whinging from the English after the Aussies retained the Ashes. @WhateleySEN | #AFL

Skip to 35:55 for a discussion about Cycle Inspect and what we are doing. One point of clarification: theoretical training is estimated to be 8 hours, however practical training is a separate commitment. Thanks to @EscapeCycling for the yarn open.spotify.com/episode/5v2… – at Hobart, Tasmania

Here we see the outcome of a ‘three point bending’ test of CFRC tubes. First picture shows minimal observable damage (even at almost 2300 N of pressure). The second picture shows the true damage, magnified using the @AliconaImaging Infinite Focus G5 3D measurement system – at Hobart, Tasmania

Does it concern anyone else that almost 1 in 2 #carbonfibre cyclists get a bike service ONLY when they hear or see something unusual?
