So as an Aussie who has spent the previous decade living in England, I’m now back down under and exploring what Tasmania has to offer. I’m sure it’s going to be quite the journey!
Love: The sound of a perfectly lubed chain whirring through a freshly serviced drivetrain, slick summer tyres humming across smooth blacktop as you spin along, otherwise silently over country roads early in the morning.

Some areas are obviously better than others. There’s massive weekend group rides in Melbourne and Sydney. The big capital cities have great club and racing scenes, although evening and weekend club/open TTs are a very English thing. You’d be hard pressed to find a regular Wednesday evening 10 to enter!
Down here in Tassie there’s a fair few groups that ride out of Hobart, mostly shop rides and a couple of clubs. Outside of the city it’s much more rural so not as big of a road cycling community (lots of dirty mountain bikers).
