Please resist the urge for a sticky beak.

In regards to illegal access to the site while its closed - I'll try and get a bit more information out to see if we can reassure people a bit with the works we are undertaking. As well as the safety issues, it adds time onto the project works - they may have to redo works once half a dozen bikes have gone through the work site after they've left. As you know - we're working to very tight deadlines, and need all the time we can get. - Project Planning Officer, National Parks & Wildlife Service

Hi there,

Considering some cheap ebay lights. Considering the three solarstorm ones.

Has anyone tried these and can compare them? Which one has the better beam spread? Any difference between the flat and round design? How do they feel when mounted on the helmet? Probably all three will be bright enough but want the one with a better spread of light.

Also saw this one for the helmet

My road bike has reliably turned its cranks smoothly for over two years with nary a service or an issue.

However, now the time has come that it's becoming a bit clunky with the shifting and the chain is probably well past its replacement date, and two stacks have led to getting the wheels a bit out of alignment. I'm sure the brakes could do with some TLC as well...

Hi all,

Great to see some local riders in the MTBA Junior XC Team for 2014. Michael Potter made the National Team, and Sara Mills and Luke Brame made the Development Squad. Congrats!

Hi. I am after some advice re: rear shocks. I have not owned a dual suspension bike before but I am currently looking around for something cheap (older in decent condition).

I will be riding mainly XC style with some easier AM thrown in. I dont like to hit the big downhill stuff.

Considering that I will be riding uphill trails a fair bit, is there anything in particular that I should be looking for in a rear shock? I am mainly worried about pedal bob and losing a lot of momentum when riding up hills.

If anyone is missing the key to their Volkswagen I have one I found in the Hazelbrook trails on the weekend.

Went for a ride around the Dam this arvo/evening.

This is a question for anyone using a FOX CTD front fork.

It's got three modes, Climb, Trail, Decent. On mine I can't actually notice any difference between the T and D mode in the front fork. Is that how they are or might I have an issue with it? The C or lockout is fine but the T mode gives me full travel with the same resistance and feel as the D or full travel mode.

The rear suspension has a definite difference between T and D modes which makes me think the front should be the same.

Anyone with experience with these forks?

How did people go at the Punishment? I came in at 5:45 for the 100km which I'm pretty pleased with as I thought I was going to be around the 8 hour mark. The training tips from the forum clearly paid off!

Found Friday morning.
Another light battery at Manly Dam.
I.D it and it's yours.
