Hey guys saw this video and I don't recognise half the spots in it. Is there more than just the one track at manly dam?

As I was finishing the last few kms of the Kowalski 100 yesterday (towards the back of the pack - hours after the elites finished!) I thought to myself - how cool would it be to be cheered home by the elites?

I crossed the finish line, feeling sore but satisfied in my achievement. I looked up, and saw none other than the great Brett Bellchambers standing there cheering home the backmarkers. I've seen Brett cheering on riders in other races around Canberra as well - even when he's not participating.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if this is possible? And if so, where the access point is, and how ridable it is. Looking to join onto 5 mile creek trail.

Thanks

I've had the chance to play with some Rubena tyres over the last few months on the 29er.

My thoughts here:

For the racer boys, I'd add that they perhaps don't roll quite as fast as a Rocket Ron + Racing Ralph combo, but if you're after a robust set of training tyres that give good grip and wear, they're a good buy.

Disclosure: the tyres and sealant were provided at no charge for the purpose of the review.

Rather than being bothered to get accurate costings, Warringah Councillors voted to turn down the chance to get involved in Bare Creek Bike Park and be part of a solution that created something that draws much needed riders and spending (and jobs) to the area.

Well unlike you (Mr Giltinan and Mr Regan in particular), some people do get it. Here's an example of what you're missing out on, thanks to your shafting of riders at the 11th hour on this project.

Would the person or persons who last week (approx. 11th Sept.) seen doing track ? maintenance on riding trails leading out of St. Ives showground please consider what they are doing e.g.digging trenches across the trails to drain water in approx. 25 locations, laying sticks and branches across muddy sections dist.approx. 5 metres. I am under the impression riding a mountain bike is in the challenge of riding natural terrain.

Vittoria has dropped the GEAX brand they established in 1997, and will now sell its MTB tyres under the Vittoria label.

Expensive wicking form fitting Cycling shirt or cotton T shirt? Which is really better in warm conditions for the MTB rider? (Less wind drag is one reason for the roadies to wear them)

In the market for new shirts so I've been looking at the evidence for wicking shirts (standard cycling shirts of today) being better than cotton. I can find no research articles that indicate the modern wicking shirt is better than $10 cotton, but some that indicate there is no difference between them in thermoregulation of body heat or comfort in warm weather (over 25c).
