Completed another lap around the sun - that means birthday churros are in order 🥳 . Thanks @shafizzledamizzle @sanchurronorthlakes @ubereats_aus . #churros #birthdayboy #getinmybelly #allthecarbs

Only taken ten months - finally managed to get down to the @brewdogau Tap Room for a cheeky schooner of Punk IPA. Tastes just as good as the one brewed back in Scotland. #chefskiss . #craftbeer #brewdog #punkipa #craftbeerlover

Been a big fan of the @fordaustralia Ranger Wildtrak ever since I first saw one, and now thanks to the great team @byrneford (hat tip to Brett in particular) we now own one. My naturalisation as an Australian citizen is complete - I drive a ute! 🇦🇺 . Now I have no excuse not to up my mountain biking game - this beast will pretty much go anywhere! . #fordranger #fordrangerwildtrak #ute #fordsofinstagram

Finally (!) saw the benefit of n + 1 today. Was all geared up for a roll out on my 29er hardtail, only to discover it had a flattie as I was loading onto the car. Instead of spending time repairing it I just grabbed my full-suspension and carried on. Still need to fix that puncture though 😒 . #cyclist #cycling #cyclistlife #mountainbiking #mountainbike #fromwhereiride #cyclistsofinstagram

Six years on - two kids, two dogs and a whole heap of bikes. Happy anniversary @tamsynjs love ya! . #weddinganniversary

Spring has sprung so I’m dragging myself out of voluntary social media hibernation. What did I miss? 🐻 . #cyclist #cyclinglife #cyclistsofinstagram

It’s not often I pick up a new book on its day of release, but stoked to have picked up The Art of Resilience by @rossedgley. Been eagerly waiting for its release and seeing what this absolute legend has to say. 💪🏻 (not really one for hard-copy books these days - prefer to keep my library portable)

The Tropical Sour Fruit Tang from @twobirdsbrewing is the perfect companion for a lazy afternoon in the sun, slow cooking a brisket on the barbecue #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #sour #tropical #tropicalvibes #sundayfunday

Not a big numbers ride this morning - unless you count my average heart rate! Haven’t been out on the full-suspension since the beginning of March so decided to take advantage of the good weather and dive round a few of the trails at Bunyaville. Fitness definitely needs work! #mtb #mtblife #cyclist #cyclistlife #singletrack #outsideisfree #fromwhereiride #dadcyclist #giantbikesaus #trance #fullsuspension

Quick pre-dusk ride around the suburb on the 29er before cracking open a well-deserved @modusoperandibrewing Sonic Prayer IPA to commence the evening’s refreshments #wattsbeforehops #earnit #cyclistlife #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #ipa #fromwhereiride #outsideisfree #greenenergy #trekbikes

Popped in to @danmurphys on the weekend to pick up a bunch of individual craft beers to sample this week and spotted these bad boys from @zythobrewing. Inspired by how good their Zesty Pale Ale is I instantly reached for six-pack and have been vibing on them for the past couple of days. Down to my last one so figured I would share the love! 🍻 . #craftbeer #tropicalhaze #zythobrewing #craftbeerlife #zythophile

It may well be a craft beer made by a supermarket chain, but the Tinnies Tropical XPA is definitely my go to beer for a refreshing sip.

Finally got back out to the @brisbanevalley_railtrail this morning after about a year and a half. Fernvale to Coominya, and back again - solid 40km banked (probably the furthest I’ve ridden since last August!). #mtb #xc #trekbikes #cyclistlife #brisbanevalleyrailtrail #outsideisfree #fromwhereiride

Was pretty keen when I found out @piratelifebeer was brewing a Tropical Pale. Stoked to pick up a four-pack and give it a go. Fruity, hoppy, refreshing - right up my street! #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #hops #chefskiss

Perfect post-ride refreshment from @zythobrewing #zesty #paleale #craftbeer #craftbeerlife

Taking the @piratelifebeer Açai and Passionfruit Sour for a spin. . Verdict: #chefskiss #refreshingaf . #craftbeer #fruitsour #hops #fruity

🇦🇺 Breaking my IG/social media hiatus with this - I am now officially an Aussie.

Australia Day 2020 will always be a memorable one. 🇦🇺 #australiaday2020 #australiaday #australia #citizenship #citizen #aussie

TFW the postie drops by with an unexpected package and you remember that back in December ‘18 you signed yourself up for a 162km bike ride that’s happening in less than 5 weeks. . Equal parts 😳 and 🎉 . @noosaclassic . #cyclistlife #cycling #noosaclassic #bikelife #instacycling

Apparently this was seven years ago today - a group of friends and I had just cycled 1,600km from Land’s End to John o’Groats in the UK to raise money for @cr_uk . . Good times!

Rad morning spent with Miss 5 doing a spot of indoor rock climbing at @eaclimbing while Miss 3 went to watch Peppa Pig at the cinema with Mum. . Seriously, this kid has mad skills and crazy-good game for someone that has rock-climbed maybe once or twice before. Future @redbull or @thenorthface athlete in the making (and I’m only half kidding!). 🤙🏻 . #prouddad #dadlife #rockclimbing #climbing #indoorclimbing
