Some people have all the luck. Fancy having the chance to do runs down Mt Panorama with it closed off to traffic.

I like my life.

this was a test for Newtons Playground

The boarders has to test to see how far up the Mount they and the street luges would be able to start and still get around Forest Elbow.

All the way from the top... For the record I was giving the boarders a start and then trying to catch them.

Doing a bit of cleaning out on the hard drive and I stumbled across some old footage that I don't think made the cut in any of my short movies so I slapped it together. There's a bit of Old bat, the now defunct Wenny Falls jumps and Lithgow

It all started when Mark came into the shop and suggested that we do another Monday ride.
As any excuse to mooch off work on Monday and go for a ride is a good excuse and I'd just about forgotten the 20km long climb at the end of the last Monday ride he organised I was hell keen.

Sunday had me riding around Lidsdale State forest on my DH bike helping out with the chix skills day so when the alarm went off Monday morning my legs were a bit scared even if the rest of me was keen.
