From small beginnings












-- Brick phones to blogs

Ten years ago – when founding Lunn Ave Bicycle Club (LABC) members Brett W and Murray G first took to Auckland roads in rugby shorts and mountain bikes – there were no blogs. At least not in East Auckland.

So, as keen as Brett and Murray were to promote their achievements they had to stick to the then winning formula of talking loudly into their brick cell phones over a long Cobb & Co lunch.

How times have changed.

Of course, phones are much smaller now. And Cobb & Co no longer befits men of lycra and swish carbon road bikes.

So, on the 10th anniversary of LABC's formation, it seems only right to embrace the bold new world of social networking to promote the wonders of the bicycle, club victories, member foibles, and shocking revelations.

Happy birthday to us.
