Stans notubes advice
Just got a Stans NoTubes kit for the youngster's bike and was after some advice.
The rims it's going on are DT Swiss X430s. The instructions say that I can just put the rubber rim strip straight in, but I'm concerned about the spoke holes possibly rubbing and cutting through it over time.
Is it wiser to run a layer of the yellow tape around the rim first or am I worrying about nothing?
Thansk for your help.

Check this preview of the 2012 Olympic MTB course - ...manicured and smooth?
Must have been built by a golf course designer/builder...?

Awaba trail status - can anyone advise?
Planning on riding Awaba on Sunday but not sure how the tracks have faired with the wet in Sydney and certainly don't want to ride the trails if they are water logged. Appreciate any updates from those that live near Awaba or have been out to check the track conditions. cheers

Dirtworks camping areas?
I've heard there's less camping areas in town this year but can't seem to get the maps off the dirtworks site.
Can anyone post a map up for me?
Cheers,
