Speed biking on snow at 210 km/h
Austria's Markus Stoeckl, 33, set a new world record at the weekend for series mountain bikes on a renovated high-speed La Parva run in the Chile's Alps when he hit a speed of 210.4 km/h (130.7 mph). He shattered an eight-year-old record by an incredible 23 km/h (14 mph).

Silly Competitions
... once a year around 90 mentalists gather at the base of fargo street in los angeles for the fargo street hill climb. They then attempt to scale the hill on a bicycle as many times as humanly possible in a day.... this year the winner was a guy called Steve Gilmore and he managed it 92 times, in the process climbing around 14′000ft in only 15 miles.
And you thought this year's Coffs was bad?

Oxford Falls now Manly Dam By Night

Ok following this weeks aborted attempt to get to OF at night, by me atleast, I'll be there next Tuesday night. Sorry can't do Wednesday as the boss will be in Tassie for work.
Feel free to join me for a social paced night ride.
If Wednesday is your preferred night then I would suspect Lorrie will post one so don't fret(?)
At the request of horsey girl this ride has now been moved to Manly Dam, still a 7.30pm start.
Hope this doesn't prevent anyone who was thinking of riding from joining us nut at the moment she is the only other confirmed starter.

You can see the resort on the coast below - that's where I started the ride. This was at about a third into the ride...

Anyway any tips?
