If anybody found a helmet and a pair of fox gloves at the end of the trail at the Hydraulics lab about 4:45 Sat afternoon please contact the plonker who left them on the top of his car and drove off! I went back about 20mins later and they weren't there so I'm hoping some kind soul picked them up for me.

I was in a black Golden Eagle Jeep and there were 2 seperate guys who finished about the same time parked across the road. If you have the equipment please get my details from my profile and contact me.

Cheers,

Andy.

Hi guys!

Just to say have fun this weekend!!
Have the best time and enjoy the every single km you got yourself into
Will hold the fort while you are gone and look forward to read all about your shenanigans!

Cheers
Caro

P.S.
Cupcake, when you are flying down Shepperd's gully remember you won't be on the big bike (otherwise you are mad!) and you are NOT on the ROAD! Take care

and Rob... hydration is your friend

Do any of the DH boys know any good trails close by to UNSW? Or do I have to keep trekking up north?

P.S It would be good if the ride section could be sorted into different disciplines as well as different distances away.

OK, I had to pull out of the Dirt Works so I went searching for the next enduro. Angry Doctor entries are now open. Event is scheduled for 7 September. Just go to the arocsport web site. See you on the trails. Cheers. Mick

I had entered the dirtwork 50km Master and now cannot do it. I noticed that others have sold their ticket and thought I would put it out there at late notice. Im not quite sure how this sale works so if anyone can fill me in that would be great.

Good news from the rangers for those not heading out of town this weekend.

Although I've just been to Cascades and it's filthy wet there, probably the wettest I've ever seen with standing water on much of the trail, even places it doesn't normally gather. I doubt the Dam has faired much better to be honest so if you can possibly avoid riding there this weekend and give the trail more chance to dry out I'm sure it will be much appreciated.

The bike track will re-open this Saturday 3rd May.

Thanks to everyone who kept off the track during and after the wet period.

We have had quite a few enquiries regarding track maintenance days. We are not planning any future track vol days until a staff vacancy is filled at the Dam. We will inform you via e-mail if we can find suitable staff to supervise in the interim.

Thanking you and safe riding.

This is a great quote,

When it comes to bike components, you can only pick two out of three adjectives to describe them: light, durable, or cheap. Having all three in one is impossible.

From V-brakes and snow don’t mix.

Hello all,

My hubbie and I are talking about heading up to Ourimbah State Forest to do some riding over the weekend. Does anyone know what the condition of the trails might be with all of the rain we have been getting lately? Also, if anyone in interested in joining us, that would be great. We are flexible about either riding Sat. or Sun. and the weather looks good for both days as far as I can tell. Cheers!

Is it getting cold or what!? I was going to put some Rock and Roll Gold lube on my chain last night. And the instant the lube hit the chain it thickened and stayed as nice blob on top of the chain without running down into the link. Obviously this isn't going to help in prolonging the life of my drivetrain.

Hi All,

I have been mountain biking for a year on my sub 1K hardtail. I have done over the 1000k's I promised I would do and now its time for an upgrade. I am unsure how useful this information will be due to my lack of experience..but you never know (Hope that is enough disclaimers)

Ohh, ohh... it's less than a week to go to Dirtworks!

Hope we're all ready and raring to go?

Anyhow, in the interests of trying not to cause huge traffic jams at the ferry and saving the obvious expense of the petrol are we all lined up with car pooling up there?

FWIW looks like Liam and I will be travelling together but there's room for one or two more (depending on the shape of your bike) so shout out if you want a ride from LNS area sometime after midday Saturday, and to return later (after the presentations) Sunday.
