We at HPT love Australia. Apparently, Australia loves our brand of cycling. There's these dudes, who build all-killer-no-filler bikes of both the pedal and moto variety. Not to be confused with these dudes, who also build bad-as bikes and rock the beats. They even hosted a mock-Roubaix that looks totally worth flying halfway around the world for. Speaking of the world, and that quadrant of it, this nutter rode a recumbent and then A SKATEBOARD around the freakin' planet. We particularly appreciate the section of his blog entitled 'gear that didn't work'. We'll take your word for it mate. In other global travesties, anyone ever wonder if there was a military application for the Segway? Apparently the answer, frighteningly, is yes. Continuing the themes of global domination, these folks think writing a letter to the UCI might help clear things up. Good luck. Lastly, a little glorious bike-lore from our own shores. Go ride something.
