A few hours escape…

On June 13, 2020June 13, 2020 By grassupthemiddleLeave a comment

Life has been interesting of late, everybody and everything has been turned upside down, it's felt at times like being inside a tumble drier which wont turn off! There are glimmers of light appearing somewhere near to the horizon, although they aren’t shining very bright, just a dull ember like glow... When the opportunity comes …

Patches are now gone! Thanks to everyone who bought one 🙂 🙂 :-)We will be producing a second run of our patches, so fret not if you missed out first time around! It'll likely take us a few weeks to get them sorted, but we will let everyone know via the blog and the Instagram …

Lockdown meanderings…

On June 7, 2020 By grassupthemiddleLeave a comment

An enforced holiday in the first half of 2020 was an unexpected event, I had not planned for this... I had planned for Tour Divide in June. Like massive amounts of people around the world it was time to adjust, reflect and become creative. I never ever get bored normally and I definitely did not …

Old haunts…

On May 13, 2020 By grassupthemiddle2 Comments

A hint of nostalgia today... After seeing Paul’s recent early morning explorations around our local trails I decided to go out by myself and take a fresh look at those trails, the same trails I used to ride every day on my way into work. It’s been a while now since I was lucky enough …

TOUR AOTEAROA 2020…

On May 8, 2020May 8, 2020 By grassupthemiddle2 Comments

Here I am again up at the very northern tip of Aotearoa , Cape Reinga  lining up for my third time for this increasingly popular brevet. I am super amped and looking forward to riding through this stunning country I now call home . I was starting in wave one this year, in 2016 I …

Something’s brewing…

On May 4, 2020 By grassupthemiddle7 Comments

How's everybody doing out there? For a variety of reasons we've been a bit quiet over last few months, but we haven't been idle! Without mentioning the obvious, there has been plenty going on to keep us all occupied with things 'non cycling' related recently. Something that Steve and I have been talking about for …

Muddy lane connoisseur…

I sat at the bench this morning enjoying the sunshine, as usual I took a photograph of my bike and posted it to Instagram, a simple expression of gratitude for the day. The egg and mushroom butty was savoured, my flask coffee was endured and I reached for my book, in short time my phone …

All the gear, no (gears) idea…

On October 29, 2019 By grassupthemiddle2 Comments

So we finally did it... Arranged a full two day excursion from the hustle and bustle of our home town streets to the leafy green Peaks, to celebrate Aidan's 23rd. He had somehow managed to bribe the weather so we could have a full day of riding in not-so-miserable conditions! As a crew we all …

A change is as good as a rest..?

On October 22, 2019October 22, 2019 By grassupthemiddle5 Comments

Life has taken a few twists and turns of late, losing a parent is a difficult and consuming process and it’s very easy to forget that your own health and well being needs some attention now and again, my usual method is to ride my bike. I’d managed to get out a few times during …

God of Sealant…

On September 22, 2019 By grassupthemiddle2 Comments

Yesterday I set off to go for my first Hyper Randonneur. For the non audax weirdos amongst you, that’s 4 x 600km or longer rides in one season. With PBP and another two 600’s done I just needed one more before the end of September. The best thing about a Hyper is that it’s not …
