Loki Cycles: April 2011
http://lokicycles.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
An amateur bicycle framebuilder: living and working in the tiny Central Highlands town of Blackwood, Victoria. I build handcrafted steel bicycles in my shed. Friday, April 29, 2011. Post blast, pre paint. Dom's bike back from the local sandblaster. I'll have to keep it somewhere warm and dry until it hits the painters: freshly blasted steel rusts like a mofo. Lower head lug and fork crown. Bottom bracket and bridge. Hopefully the next shot has it with some paint on it. Sunday, April 24, 2011. They go int...

Bike Musings: Pugs Fail
http://bikemusings.blogspot.com/2011/07/pugs-fail.html
Monday, July 18, 2011. I had a superb three hour trail ride in all conditions today. Here are a few thoughts few conclusions. Caveat: Forget about flotation, this is a review of the Pugsley as a trail. Bike Excellence in the areas requiring flotation is a given, but that is not what I use this bike for. I was pleasantly surprised to hear a sound reminiscent of the original Enterprise's warp drive. While rolling fast on a short paved section. Rigid bike with a little more cush as I took it down my favorit...

Bike Musings: February 2011
http://bikemusings.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 21, 2011. I purposely took both bikes to Sedona to compare them and rode the Jones in the morning, and the By:Stickel in the afternoon. I only had about two hours on the Jones prior to this ride and maybe 60 hours on the By:Stickel. Imagine my surprise when I rode more comfortably and confidently in technical terrain, and at high speed on the Jones. It wasn't even close. This sort of move was no problem on the Jones, it would have scared me on the By:Stickel. Much heavier (same weight fo...

Bike Musings: August 2010
http://bikemusings.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. Summer has just died here. This am is was cool, breezy and mostly bluebird skies. We took a couple new folks out to the Dells. They appeared to have fun. I know I sure did. Simon Bar is the perfect bike. Rarely did I feel like I wanted anything more. Just below Willow Dam. This is the result of blowing your wad climbing waaay STIL slick rock. We did this next section a bunch of times with a couple different lines. It requires careful braking, but isn't really that bad. WB will en...

Bike Musings: April 2011
http://bikemusings.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. I took little E out to the new mellow Dells light trail to see how he could do in some mildly technical terrain. As he is growing, his strength is increasing significantly. I had also lowered the gearing on his SS and put on some light knobbies recently which would help his climbing. First tech section.passed. Sometimes it ain't gonna happen. It wasn't all tech. Time to head down and hit a few tech sections:. I'm proud of the ratchet pedaling in that one:). Links to this post.

Loki Cycles: March 2011
http://lokicycles.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
An amateur bicycle framebuilder: living and working in the tiny Central Highlands town of Blackwood, Victoria. I build handcrafted steel bicycles in my shed. Thursday, March 31, 2011. Off with the stay, clean it up, reposition it and have another crack. You can see just how much surface corrosion you get in a couple of weeks. The right one is lovely and clean, but that rust bloom just keeps coming back to freshly cleaned steel. Friday, March 11, 2011. The last of the distractions. This is the bike th...

Loki Cycles: January 2011

An amateur bicycle framebuilder: living and working in the tiny Central Highlands town of Blackwood, Victoria. I build handcrafted steel bicycles in my shed. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Dom's bike looks like a bike now. Big session in the shed over Australia Day. The bike is starting to look a lot more like a bike as opposed to a collection of tubes. Looking a lot like a bike! Water bottle bosses in place. And after a scrub and a tiny bit of clean-up with some emery cloth. Nothing terribly exciting here...

Bike Musings: January 2011

Sunday, January 30, 2011. This is a rare breast tumor known as a phyllodes tumor. I have only see one in my 10 years in practice. This photo shows this large 6-7cm tumor transected and also shows the "leafy" appearance from which the tumor derives its name. This one presented as a large mass in the breast and needle biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. It is preferable to breast adenocarcinoma. Wide excision is curative. Links to this post. When these work they are pretty brilliant. The largest of which is 3cm.
