Just another photo I found of my bike.
I recently had my Cannondale Slice Time Trial bike stolen from my appartment building in North Sydney. I am due to compete in the Bussleton Ironman next month and this was to be my ride.

Bussleton Ironman Photos
Well – its only taken me three months post race to post some photos – but better late than never. These are the photos from my first ironman event on a borrowed bike due to someone stealing my Cannondale Slice 09 XL.
$500 reward still on offer to any leads.
Some more photos… …Still no bike
Here are some more photos I found from the last race I did on my Cannondale Slice XL (2009). These are from the 2010 Port Macquarie Half Ironman. This was my first long(ish) race. Port Macquarie has a bloody hard tri course with the bike course on a rough surface with rolling hills (and two absolute walls to get up). The run was very challenging with a killer hill to get up. Not being the lightest guy in the world (105kg – see photos) I’m not sure if I would run back to that course in a hurry.
While the new bike is up and running (see photos below) – I still miss my old ride. $500 reward is still on offer to any information leading to its return. Finally thanks to all the emails of support – please continue to keep an eye out for me at all those tri events.

New bike arrives – old one still missing
I finally received my new bike yesterday (thanks Bike Spec in North Balwyn). My old Cannondale Slice is still out there somewhere. I still have faith (I may be stupid) that it will show up somewhere. It is just very unique (I have never seen another XL slice and certainly not one with a full Zipp Vuka head unit – including stem). Other unique features 177.5mm SRAM Red cranks, S60 / S80 wheel (various scratches on the stickers). As much as its nice to get a new bike – I still miss my Cannondale terribly – it was my first tri-bike and so great to ride.
There is still a $500 reward for anyone that returns or provides information that leads to its return.
