Nice one. My riverloop is on the gravelbike, basically hugging the river edge all the way around. Some cool, scenic spots and tracks along the way.

[@Velographer]

Whoaaa i should follow you sometime! Is it actual gravel riding as well?

[@haemstah]

@VeloGrapher There are a few gravel stretches along the way. Grass, sand and rocks, for extra bonus points! Good times😁

[@Velographer]

Hey buddy, is anyone welcome in this group ?? What days/time do you ride please. Looking for a group to ride with.

[@Velographer]

@@tilltheend685 yeah search for SR Cycling Group (Perth Cycling) on FB and you’ll find them

[@jacklalalaful]

What are the handlebars?

[@Velographer]

hey mate~ They're the Ascent Aeroo handlebars. Here's a link to them - www.ascent-bikes.com/pages/aeroo-aero-handlebars

Re zebra crossings. Pedestrians have the right of way under ALL circumstances. With zebra crossings, road users have plenty of time to slow down and check if anyone is about to cross. Having said that I'm always amazed at how Perth people, when on foot, are so submissive to the motor vehicle. It's weird. Rant over! 😄

[@Velographer]

@@bobpaterson7540 🤣🤣🤣 what I can’t understand is how pedestrians (esp in the freo/cott areas) just walk without looking. They trust the law and vehicles too much.

[@bobpaterson7540]

@VeloGrapher Yeah it's mad not to make sure the driver has seen you before stepping out. I wouldn't trust a random driver not to be an idiot/drunk. Most of the time they're not, but it's not worth the risk 🥴

[@Velographer]

@ 100%

[@ashuncateater]

What’s the point of those handlebars when u can’t even put out the watts or hold speed to get the aerodynamic benefit 😂

[@Velographer]

lol what a burn. you're probably a lot faster than I am, and if you are, kudos to you. I feel a lot more comfortable on these bars than other previous ones and that's the key point. I might not be doing speeds that you're doing but I definitely get the aero benefits of having a smaller frontal profile.

[@tilltheend685]

What's the point of this comment ??

[@ashuncateater]

@ come back to me on those bars when you win a bike race

[@Velographer]

@@ashuncateater I doubt I’d win :) but they’ve seen wins in Belgium, the ProVelo league and many other places. I love my bars and ride for the comfort and gains. Check out @peaktorque and his review on these.
