I went for a little ride yesterday. Nearly coughed up a lung ( stoopid cold ) but felt stong - it was almost warm too.

To be honest I'm a bit sick of Melbourne, although I have to agree, I do like riding when it's between about 20 degrees. If you moved to Brisvegas, you'd be begging for Summer to end, but down here, you're begging for Winter to end, so you're dammed either way. As for Sydney, well, driving is a nightmare is Sydney, so I can't imagine ever cycling there. Plus, if I moved to Sydney I'd probably turn into a yuppie and do something in 'marketing', so there's little chance of that happening.

I hear the Alice is nice this time of year
