I rode the world s first human-powered monorail – here s what it was like

Well, at least you can’t fall off… Bryn gets ready for the race   Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time. Who would pass up on the opportunity to give an old university mate a hiding (in the spirit of friendly competition) pedalling enclosed, in an aerodynamic Perspex bubble, suspended from a monorail? Thinking about it, that’s probably what crossed Eli’s mind when I suggested to him that we meet at Rotorua’s Velocity Valley for a duel on the Shweeb Racer.  Emerging stiff-legged after a two-and-a-half hour drive on the road south from Auckland, I found my confidence reduced. Eli is a “Rotovegas” local and arrived looking altogether too fresh and lively and with a mountain bike in the back of his pickup. My confidence dwindled some more.

What s it really like to be on stage at the Sydney Opera House? I found out – with a walk-on role

What s it really like to be on stage at the Sydney Opera House?

But unless you’re a professional singer, only a very privileged few can claim to have trodden its boards in an actual performance. 

Can I rewild myself in a weekend?

Can I rewild myself in a weekend? Aisling O’Leary learns to disconnect with screens and reconnect with nature on a weekend of wild swimming and fire making in Cornwall 30 January 2021 • 8:00am A brave soul plunges into the River Fal I  am floating in the river Fal on a crisp morning in Cornwall, eyes full of bluish-pink sky. The lush vegetation on either side of the water is tinged with yellow and orange and a fishing boat quietly makes its way downstream. I have been in so long at this point that I might have turned into Seamus, the local seal – but never have I felt so enlivened by nature.
