Month 1 Video
Week 1 – Ebike Commute 110km
The ‘Weekly Count’ officially started.
Another short week with a Public Holiday on Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday had more rain.
Roads relatively quiet due to Easter school holiday.
Fine weather on Thursday and Friday saw bike and shared paths busy.
Found a shared path which prevents the need to turn right onto a busy road, making my commute safer.
I have travelled over 700km on the Cube Nature One e-bike and the bike is ready for its first service at 99Bikes Annerley.
Local ULP 91 price – $1.50/l. Fuel saving since 14/3/2021 – $81.86.
Week 2 – Ebike Commute 138km
Brisbane at this time of year is perfect for commuter cycling. The days are mild with beautiful clear blue skies. The daylight is holding for my ride home.
On Monday, the Cube headset became loose after the bearing was replaced during servicing. I tightened the headset using the tools I carry and was able to continue my commute home.
The roads became progressively busier towards the end of the week.
99Green Team 21 shirt arrived on Friday.
On Saturday, took the Cube bike to 99Bikes Annerley for headset inspection. All OK.
Local ULP 91 price – $1.40/l. Fuel saving since 14/3/2021 – $103.03.
Week 3 – Ebike Commute 138km
Weather is still perfect. Easter school holidays now finished so all roads back to their busy normal.
Veloway 1 extremely busy on Thursday 22nd with cyclists riding in their support of Earth Day.
On Saturday, I rode to the ATM, barber and Post Office instead of driving.
My very first attempt at selfie video. Ordinary results. I had another go on our Monday public holiday. Progressive improvement.

Week 4 – Ebike Commute 110km
Another short week with Monday being QLD Anzac Day Public Holiday.
Autumn has finally arrived, with cooler morning commutes and limited daylight during my afternoon ride home.
On Saturday I rode to the Post Office and Dan Murphy’s instead of driving.
