Hey guys
New to riding. Awaba is my local track an i love it.
How do you find out when track work days are? and can any one help out? Would love to get more involved.

A bit lost yesterday trying to find Gahnia I ended up on the far side of Forestville Park’s (Ferretville) second oval. One of the club members I know was mowing and waved me around the edge of the oval. That night a Ferret director was at my place and mentioned that the club feel that bikes riding across the oval, on the one track, are doing damage.

Agree with this or not, we should probably not ride across the ovals for “good neighbourly relations”. The long grass has now been cut so it’s easy to ride around the oval’s edge.

Guys any thoughts on the best valves to use for a tubeless rim?
I'm having a hard time sealing the Shimano ones I've put in my new LB rims.
They seem to move around a lot in the hole.

Hello everyone! Just a quick question, Ive noticed my rear shock is leaking a bit of air and for reference its an rp23s. How hard is it to service myself? Im assuming its just seals and fluid but is there any difference in servicing an rp23 and an rp23s?

Also where is the best place to get the seals and oil from? I really don't want to send the shock to fox for $250!!!!! Absolute madness..

Cheers,

Jono.

Hi guys,
Just need some advice, do LBS do Fox Fork & Shock servicing, or is it better to get it done by specialists?
Fox Talas 36 Fork & Fox RP2 DRCV Shock, Trek bike.
Never had them seviced yet, but have never had any problems either.
Any advice would be welcomed.
Thanks

What amazing looking trail.

Who built this thing? I want to hug him. Gosh this thing is awesome, just so much fun to ride. With all the "official" trails around I took my time to actually find and ride it but I shouldnt have. This is one of the best trails on the Northern Beaches I think, love it! Thanks!

Just wondering who (if anyone) is responsible for keeping cascades under control. Ive noticed its looking very rough the last few weeks especially around the heath single track loop. I find my bars are a lot wider even though they haven't changed in the last few years :S I understand its single track but there are a lot of sturdy branches poking out.

I would be very happy to assist in a bit of maintenance but just wondering if theres a specific channel i should go through.

Cheers,

Jono.

Let me share my recent warranty experience with the big red S.

So in December I noticed a mark on my frame around the bottom bracket area that looks rather suspicious, it looks like a deep scratch so I took it to the shop where I got it from to have it looked at. At the same time I sprained my ankle during a ride and I was told to rest it for 6 weeks. The mechanic was certain that the mark was indeed a small crack on the frame, and that he was going to take some pictures and show it to the big S.

Just checking the condition of Muppets etc have a day off tomorrow looking to hit the trails

Thanks in advance

I burst out laughing when I thought this up the first time and couldn't resist sharing. First time most people will compare a water bottle to the family's jewels...

A Baptist minister, a Catholic priest and a rabbi walked into a bike shop at the same time to each buy themselves a nice new mountain bike (immediately you will realize this is a joke). Since they were all there together, they decide to take their bikes for their inaugural ride together on the local mountain bike track.

I know Gahnia will be dry but it's not really my thing (nothing against the trail). Anyone ridden the Dam or Possums in the last day or so - is it dry? Any other recommendations for dry trails this weekend around the beaches?
Thanks,
