I thought I'd start a thread where you can dump links to cycling in the media, be it newspapers, magazines, etc.

i Ride an ANTHEM

I like the prospect of public showers/change rooms....so long as they can be maintained and cleaned regularly. I for one don't have access to a shower in my office, which is a big restriction on me commuting to/from work on a bike.
Training is like fighting with a gorilla. You don't stop when you're tired. You stop when the gorilla is tired.
That would be a good idea. Even if you had to pay $2 to use one for 10 minutes. I am lucky and have showers at work so its not a worry to me. A city without cars, wow!
It'll happen, eventually. George St. as it is is a one lane affair thanks to Bus Lanes and Bourke St. just lost 60 car spaces to a bicycle lane.
If you live in the city, chances are you work in the city so public transport or walking/jogging/cycling to work sounds about right to me.
