Cunning Stunts from the LAnd of the Wrong White Cloud
Came across this today, sure to be of interest to anyone remotely interested in North Shore Style stunts. Crappy vid quality but well worth the look NZ North Shore
60 minutes - this Sunday
Just saw the ad on TV. A guy slams into a tree on his bike at full speed, his friends must have been filming it. and the story is about his treatment and stuff it seems. But i'm sure it will have loads of riding, plus loads of "the dangers our youth are up....where are your children now" usual media rants.
Might be worth a watch.
cheers

Another riding holiday - Canberra or Melbourne
I'm thinking of doing a short mountain biking holiday; the candidates so far are Canberra and Melbourne.
Canberra has lots of good trails very close by. I could probably spend most of a week exploring, if only there was something to entertain me for the time that I wasn't riding!
I'd also like to do Melbourne - there's lots of non-MTB stuff to do - but I can't find much info on trails in the area. There's Lysterfield Park, and - well, lots of gravel paths 'suitable for mountain bikes', according to the government websites. I don't know if Melbourne has anything that's even worth riding.
Bottom Bracket
Replacing the BB this evening, I'm not convinced all is well in the frame here, so took a pic. One of these holes at least looks like it shouldn't be there 
In this shot, 9 o'clock is the bottom of the frame The hole at 3 o'clock (saddle is above here) looks very wrong. The one at 12 o'clock in this shot seems to line up with the bottom tube.
There's another view here.

My thumb is on the bottom of the frame, the illuminated hole centre looks very wrong. There's another at 12 o'clock in this shot that seems to line up with the bottom tube.

The last (Manly Dam) frontier - The A line off the 19th hole
OK, after being able to clear everything else on the track there remains the nagging 19th hole A-Line. Having tried every other (3) line off the 19th hole last night I've almost convinced myself that the A-Line isn't as hard as it looks and can be taken just over walking pace as long as you get seat down and weight back.
Has anyone actually tackled this and got any tips?
Also what is probably the B line, to the left of the A line, caught me out last night, front wheel into dip before rock and OTB resulting in a stupid hand out hyperextended finger incident and very sore typing this morning! That one can certainly catch you out!
