I want to ride my bicycle

Last night we had fun catching up with friends at the ANU beer garden (now paved and a little bit fancy) and then had dinner at Roti House (Marcus Clarke St) - no nonsense Malaysian fare served with the most melt in the mouth roti ever. I can't wait to go back and try their chendol (yummy Malaysian dessert).

Today's big news is that we bought some bikes from our local cyclery - Ride365. The lovely people there did us a great deal - and  of course when you buy bikes, you also need helmets, gloves, waterbottle holders, a big wide seat for me ... and we even went the whole hog and bought proper clip clop shoes too. And they served a decent coffee while we were deciding what to get. 


Ryan at Ride 365 kindly attached all the bits and pieces and we returned to pick up the bikes this afternoon. And then went for a ride around the lake, which was great fun.
