21st July - Unicycle hockey
If you thought riding a unicycle was challenge enough for one day... how about unicycle hockey?! I met up with a group of guys who meet up every Sunday around 10.30am behind Newtown public school to play one wheeled hockey. Some were former jugglers others unicycle afficianados and a couple were attending the Unicyle hockey world championships in Switzerland. If anybody is even slightly curious about unicycling I highly recommend checking out the guys on a Sunday morning... they would make you feel extremely welcome.

14th July - Bike Love talks Amsterdam
This week, Bike Love talks to Dave Pryor, a fellow Sydney sider, who is currently based in the bicycle mecca of Amsterdam. The attitude towards cycling and cyclists in Amsterdam is enough to blow you away... it is not a strange type of sport, it is simply a method of transport.Download the MP3
7th July - Bike Love gets Muddy
This week on Bike Love we go to Killingworth near Newcastle and meet some of the contestants of the 8 hour mountain bike race which forms part of the working week series. There are 5 of these races in total (akin to 5 days of the week) and the races run from 9am to 5pm on a Sunday. The one at Killingworth was a particularly muddy affair but that didn't seem to dissuade any of the riders.
The Last and final race is at Sparrowhill near Canberra on Sunday 6th August... should be a lot of fun.Download the MP3
