Northbridge Pump Track Maintenance Day & BBQ Sat 28th
Hi Guys
Just a lil reminder!
Thanks to all who have confirmed that you are attending tomorrow (Sat 28th May) maintenance day.
I know a lot of you are sacrificing riding hours to help out tomorrow, but its for the greater good and future trail advocacy with the councils. Some people are coming a long way to help so we appreciate it.
We should have a good crew there tomorrow and a BBQ (supplied by AMB) is planned too at lunch time so bring a few bucks for snags.
start time is 8.30 am with Trail boss's are Dave Musgrove and Oli Kristevic, sorting tasks out

Breathing life back into a hard tail MTB frame
So I've just finished a project building-up this 8 year old Legless Lizard mountain bike frame as a single speed flip-flop fixie. The frame has been in a bike bag in the garage for years now and its great to be able to breath life back into it.
If anyone's interested in doing something similar, or just interested in what went into it, I kept a blog of the process. Check it out http://hybridbike.posterous.com/ be good to hear your thoughts on whether the flip-flop system is innovative or not? I've not seen many around, but then I don't hang-out much in the fixie world

Manly Dam and Cascades Condition Today????
Has anybody been at the Dam or the Cacades today. Trying to suss out if the trails are reasonable ridable after the rain as I am contemplating a night ride.

Lance
Interesting article by Richard Hinds in the smh today http://www.smh.com.au/sport/cycling/backpedallin....
I'm a huge Lance fan but I am starting to have my doubts. If the reports about Hincapie are correct it will be pretty damning, the first from someone not caught already.

Relaxed Cruise @ Mnt Annan
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
There's a small parking area on Caley Drive next to the trail head. This is approximately 2.1km South from the larger road junction (circle) at Mt Annan Drive and approximately 1.4km South of the main car park.
Their address is Mount Annan Drive, Mount Annan NSW 2567. See:
Hi - I've never ridden out at Mnt Annan before. I fancy bunking down there on a Sat arvo to cut a few laps.
It'll be very very relaxed as I'll have ridden on the roadie in the morning, so this is just a real chill-out casual ride.
I might do some skills / technique stuff while I'm there too - just depends on what its like.
