Hi all,

I'm heading down to Canberra this weekend for the rocky trail event at Stromlo and would like to know the best place to ride on the Friday for some fun. Please help!!!

I lost my air pressure top cap on Friday somewhere around the pines in margaret river. It's obviosuly blue and float 34. I can't seem to find it as a spare part anywhere so if someone found it and pmed me it would be great.

Just wondering if anyone has any red hot recommendations for an LBS on the Lower North Shore who do great bike services?

As cyclists we interact with some monumental idiots on the road but this guy is showing form and so posting a warning. Last week saw this driver blasting his horns and being a DH to two girls on McCarrs then he closed shaved me and the next guy at speed. This morning saw him again around 9am as I was heading into Duck Holes - doing the same thing this time I was lucky and on opposite side of the road. Cleary a local or regular.
The guy has a problem with bikes - It's a dark brown POS Nissan Pulsar - Plate starts with WMN - I think.
Watch out and try and get his plate

Hi All

Hi,

Hello everyone. So i went for a ride yesterday and at my halfway point i heard a ping from a rock flying of something, then a minute or 2 later my tire was flat. Im running tubeless so i was quite surprised i had a flat but when i looked closer the rock bounced of my rim and slashed my sidewall.

The cut is probably 1mm wide by about 3/4cm long so i though the goo should of sealed it but under closer inspection all the goo in my tire was dried up.

Quick little play on the new bike on a glorious afternoon in the 'go.

Some details I' suppose

Huge thanks to Rick Boyer and the team at Lusty Industries and Distributors Santa Cruz Bicycles Australia and Santa Cruz Bikes for Jumping through hoops to get me sorted with this. I had a heap of spare parts sitting about so when the opportunity of a new frame came up I jumped at it. Only, being a retro grouch, everything I had was for 26" ( You remember remember, little wheels, heaps of fun)

Not MTB-specific, but may be of interest to anyone north of the bridge (Narrabeen Bridge!)

Project summary
Pittwater Council is working on a new Bike Plan which will encourage an active Pittwater, where cycling is supported as a travel choice around our town centres and villages. It will also identify other important cycle linkages to destinations like beaches and parks.

We are looking for input from all types of cyclists, from commuters to retirees and families, to help develop the plan to nurture a bike-friendly community.

Hey everyone - towards the end of last year I wrote a bit about the Hellfire Cup in Tassie (19th - 22nd November). Its a hell (excuse me) of a good event.
As I said before, its a bit of a cross between a race, a social event, and a music festival. A really unique vibe. $ days of incredible MTB riding on some rad trails, with only half an eye on the results sheet.

Anyway - if anyone was interested in going, or had questions, there are two events this week that will provide answers and also some benefits..

If anyone has raced the Wildside stage race in Tasmania before could you comment on how technical the trails are? Particularly how it compares to the trails around Sydney.

My wife is considering entering and is not yet confident riding all of Manly Dam. Would the this make the Wildside not enjoyable or would it just mean walking a few sections?
