Easter Mud Bath
What a keen lot these guys are. Rain? Cold? Mud? Sand? Ah, who cares!?
Loads of rides seemed to be going on over the Easter long weekend. The picture here is what happens when two different rides happen to meet at the end of Terrey Hills Long Trail. All smiles and loving it!
There are also a few shots from the Manly Dam ride that actually took place at Oxford Falls in the Oxford Falls Gallery.
Wet? Muddy? Only a few intrepid soles out here, but still looked like fun!
Frame refinishing
I'm thinking of a frame blast and powdercoat for a birthday N+1 substitute. Does anyone know somebody in Sydney who'd do a good job?
The Heckler's looking a bit tired in spots where the anodised silver finish is starting to wear off. I'm not after anything too flash just a gloss black finish or (not sure whether this is harder or easier but) a polished metal finish.
Ta,
Matt.
Marramarra - the grand expedition
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Bloodwood Road, Fiddletown - (will get a map reference shortly)
Hi all,
Some people are interested in getting back out to the Marramarra National Park. Me? I will be a first timer.
By the sound of the trail review (thanks Rob!) this will be an interesting ride that contains all the hallmarks of a fantastic single trail ride. Uphill, downhill, single trail, some fire trail, rocky bits, excellent exploration, and a lot of fun! Come along and join in the good times.

Free MTB Movies
For those with bandwidth and time to kill, a few free & legal downloads are about:
STUND VISIONS "Bringing the wheels to the web". These guys appear to be taking a winter break, but the 5 shows up there are well worth a watch.
Pinbike Videos have a whole load more trailers and stuff too.
Noticed this today, BA have a link to a top short (16 min) movie up on their site for download:
