In which Val and Faith soldier on manfully despite the absence of Nyssa and Chris to bring you a couple of bike moments and a weekly wrap up. Featured are the importance of air in your tyres, the joy of a new bike, Victoria Police’s Bike Safety Month – in which they try to save cyclists from themselves – and discussion of the Freestyle Cyclists campaign launch on the weekend.

Faith reviews two books; Bike! A Tribute to the World’s Greatest Racing Bicycles and Racing Bicycles: 100 Years of Steel. Val reviews a film neither of us deigned to see when it came out, BMX Bandits, and it seems we may well have missed something. We finish up with a wrap up of upcoming events. Tune in next week when we’ll be talking about what we saw at Ausbike, the bicycle credentials of Yarra election candidates and much much more.
