Have been given the timex cycle trainer 2.0 , was wondering if you can put it on a mountain bike or just a road bike . Before I get any smart arse replies , yes I am technologically challenged and never seen one before .
And how do you install ? Any help appreciated , manual does not help much .

Hi Guys,
After the awesome workshop & prac stuff done on the weekend, it occurred to me that it may be a good thing to get our hands on one or two Clinometers. They're usually pretty expensive, but given my field of work, I'm able to get much better pricing on a range of stuff.

Now obviously, I'm not going to be able to get one for everyone, but if we want to get a couple for the BMORC group, to be looked after by key personnel, them I'm happy to arrange it.

Folks,

After my late entry into the All-WA bonnet surfing competition - or as you might know it - being hit by sleep driving woman in a Toyota, resulted in me getting what they called a "Simple" Collar bone fracture, now, about 6 days later I have this pale yellow coloured "bruising" apperaring on the front of my shoulder.

Anyone able to tell me why is this colour - and why there was no normal bruising there before?

just curious.

Following discussions about the 2000 Olympic MTB track, I thought some of you might like this article about the 2014 commonwealth games course in Glasgow.

Looks like it will be a good track for the race but more importantly, it's clearly seen as a big draw card for MTB tourists as well as locals. Some very mature comments from the local council as well,as the news reporter.
The track is easy riding distance from where I was brought up in the East end of Glasgow .....

Is it normal to lose a lot more pressure , more quickly in yr rear shock compared to yr front?

2. A question for the gear heads. Were all the riders in Olympics MTB riding 29ers?

3. Is Kulhavy a cyborg? He appeared to be the only one on a dually and he ate other riders on the climbs. How about that last lap!!! I noticed in the WC too he was really tentative on the downhill, do you think he rides dually because DH is his weakness and he needs all the help he can get but compensates with extreme climbing ability?

After seeing the SRAM 1x11 setup, it really got me thinking... do i really need my 3x10 anymore?

As a 'zero' cost option, i decided to see if i could convert my XT 780 drivetrain to 1x10.

Step 1 was looking at gearing charts. The setup I chose (32x 11-36) would take away a lot of taller gearing i never used, but also some shorter gearing which i did use... but only because it was there.

Step 2: The conversion.
Im not going to provide a step-by-step guide as its fairly simple. The only parts you (and when i say you, i mean me) will need are:
-Single chainring bolts

Can someone tell me if the "Competent" trail at Mount Annan is ok for a 5yo who is confident on their bike (good on bmx and pump tracks) but is only on 16" wheels?

Also, is the pump track open? I can't find anything about it on the official website.

"focus focus focus" that's what he was probably thinking the dude in the video:

Knowing that there are a fair few 'poms' on this site (being one myself) I thought I would share this....
Lots of cyclists on here, so it is certainly relevant material to the site

I was lucky enough to get back to London for the Games, and I must say, it was incredible.
Hope you enjoy the vid - whether you are Pom, Aussie, or whatever...

The jumps track at hat hill rd blackheath will shortly be lost to a housing developement. Blue Mountains Council are holding meetings at Blackheath RSL, 2 bundarra st Blackheath on Wednesday 15th August 6.30pm and at the jumps track on Saturday the 25th August 2 to 4 pm to discuss options for an alternative site.

Seen one for a bit above what I have to spend but wonder if it'd be worth the extra. I'm very much an XC rider and this looks the part.
Any opinions welcome.
Cheers
