More when I get a chance to do a proper edit of the HD stuff

I have seen a few signs around Garigal & Bantry Bay stating "cameras in use". I thought they might be a scare tactic but I actually stumbled on a camera today at Cascades on the main track. They are green camouflaged boxes. So beware if you are venturing into a closed off section (which you shouldn’t be doing anyway).

Anyone got any experience with the Caffelatex sealant? Looks good in theory, of interest it says

"no ammonia and is 100% tire and rim friendly"

which should put an end to some of the de-laminating issues people have been having too.

Looking at it simply from an economic view it looks good too, USD $29.99 for 1000ml and they suggest you use 50ml per 2.10 MTB tyre

OK, So I have this Garman Edge 705 and I can't work out how to get it to display HR as a percentage. I usually display in training zone but percentage is useful as well. I'm in IT, it can't be THAT hard!

Can anyone help?

The guys over at Rotorburn have been talking about a network of singletrack out on the Malabar Headland south of Maroubra.

I sussed out this morning and it's pretty good for something so close to the city.

Here's the map.

The terrain is a mixture of tight technical singletrack, and Moab style bare rock with lots of technical features.

This definitely provides another local option and is potentially another Manly Dam with good management.

Morning All ,
Spending Time with Family out at Mudgee over Christmas. Does anyone know of the trails in the area?

G'day - My apologies for what may be a n00b question.

I've recently made it over here from Canada. I was hoping to ride the oaks and andersons, and I'm getting a little confused by the fire ban policy. The DECCW website is listing a major fire in the Blue Mtns Park, with a few closed or affected areas. Does this mean that the oaks and andersons trails are closed to riding as well?

I've been keeping an eye here:

Cheers.

Has anyone ridden the Dam after the rain on Friday? Is it ok to ride?

hey all. Just got off the phone to JT from Revolution magazine.

He's just heard about our twilight series and was so taken with the concept hes bringing up some photographers with the goal of running a story in the next mag. He want it to focus on grass roots, characters and up and coming riders. All the things that make the sport

Anyway at this stage they are going to aim to get out here for the round on the 19th of January so we need a big roll up to show how popular it is.

Hittin Thredders for the holidays and am absolutely shittin myself n petrified about my rig and skill level...
Saw some tubes and it looks pretty hectic.

Far from being a DH rider, I would say we're XC intermediate riders at best.
Will we survive on XC rigs with 5 inches of travel?? Or are we better off rentin out the leadweights?

Is there flowy downhill rides to do?

Also we're thinking about hitting up Sparrow Hill on the way through.
Anything else worth the look that is within our route??

Slow day. thought i'd post some pr0n.

how about a sand-cast DH frame with no tubing? (save the seatpost/handlebar/headtube/BB/pivot/yougetthepoint)

been out since 2007, but still yet to gain momentum i think. Interesting concept of building a dh bike primarily to increase sprung/unsprung weight ratio.
