With the young bloke doing the HSC next year, the next school hols might be the last chance we have for awhile to do something great together, so I've floated the idea of a trip to Rotovegas for a week.
We're both more of the cross country persuasion than DH or AM.
Looking for ideas and suggestions for tour companies/guides, places to stay and occasional things to do off-bike to break it up.
I'd imagine we need to book quickly to secure a place.
Also, would you recommend takind (and risking) your own bike, or hiring over there?
Question about topeak pumps
Hi there,
Bit of a dumb question but I just bought a Topeak Joe Blow mountain pump.
http://www.topeak.com/products/pumps/jb_mountain
My question is is the yellow indicator on the pressure gauge ment to move as you pump? On mine, it doesn't move. The only way it moves is if I move it by hand.
Thanks for any help
Wanted: Ritchey WCS Carbon Flat Bar
I'm after a 600/620mm carbon flat bar for my xc bike, preferably a Ritchey WCS (to match my seatpost) but would consider another brand if you've got something lying around the garage that you're willing to offload.. name your price!

Womens MTB course, Sydney area
hey guys
I am away for 6 weeks, and I would like to surprise my girl with a couple of lessons/skills sessions to help her out on the bike, is there anyone around that runs them? and no this is not a chance for you to pick her up!!! haha
She knows the basics, has ridden terrey hills, duckhole, warratah, and ourimbah, but i think she could do with someone else's opinion.

Ourimbah State Forest update for 17 Jul
NB: I didn't ride the XC.
The DH and AM tracks are both one dry. The few bits of XC that I did ride were fine however I think the lowest sitting parts will probably be a red due to retaining water.
The new line on the DH track is fantastic fun on a small bike if anyone is wondering. High speed, much more flow that the line it replaces and some nice little drops and jumps.
