These are the types of shots that I’ve been able to take of bikes.

Shattered! Bye-Bye Belladonna
by Kangaeroo •
Calling Belladonna the love of my life would be going a bit too far.
But only a tiny smidgen.
And she is waaaay up there.
But, the beautiful Belladonna is gone.
A cracked frame means this carbon bike is now an accident waiting to happen.
She is irreparable.
And it happened the very day after finally being given an all-clear to ride again following illness and injury that have been another plague to cope with since January.
Despondent is not the word.
But I cannot thank this beautiful bike enough for the sheer, unadulterated joys she gave me.
She has made it hard to ride another bike, though.
But, it’s a great chance to grow and learn.
My deepest thanks go out to JD for enabling Belladonna to come into my life.

More Climbing
by Kangaeroo •
Continuing on from yesterday, today was another day of climbing through the mountains on the beautiful Belladonna (a Cervelo R5 road bike).
Kangaeroo is too exhausted from the energy-sapping ride and a rush to get out to go into much detail.
But he is eternally grateful to cycling for giving these opportunities that have been unimaginable for most of his life, and to his wife for allowing him to pursue these dreams.
And, of course, to his bikes for carrying him there, and the cycling mates who help and encourage him.
