SRAM/Shimano Derailleur/Shifter compatability
Is it possible to use an XTR or any other shimano shifter with a SRAM X.0 rear derailleur?
Does SRAM have 2 way shifters like the new shimano ones (i.e. thumb/index finger downshift)?
Whats the difference between derailleur cage lengths? what are the advantages/disadvantages of a longer/shorter cage length?
thanks
Newbie's Qs about Riding after Rain
Hi NobMobbers, thanks for having me here. Recently I've developed the riding bug that has me wanting to ride trails everyday, regardless of the weather. Having said that, I haven't been out in the mud yet for 2 reasons: I don't want to clean my bike all the time, and I don't want to be responsible for wrecking trails.
What is the etiquette for riding after rain? How many days of sunshine should you leave after rain before riding again? Is there a service that can tell you track conditions or track closures?
Australia Day weekend ride
Hello hello!
I was just wondering if anybody would be interested in longer ride/ day trip on Australia Day weekend? Would love to do a long ride either somewhere we haven't been or somewhere fabulous we don't go often enough! (Maybe with some technical bits) 
Would the ride you suggested in Belangelo qualify for that, Liam? And does anybody know the area around there (apart from picking up backpackers 
)? Or we could spend some more time at Menai, really loved it down there! Any other suggestions?
Either Saturday or Sunday would be my days of choice.
Happy rainy day!
Caro
