What tools should I take on a 80 minute race?
I'm going to do my final race for school at Thredbo for the Australian schools championships next weekend, and in the process of wanting to save carrying a lot, wonder if anyone has any suggestions as to what are the necessary tools for a 20km (5 lap) race... Also - should I use a water bottle or camelbak for the duration of the race and how much water is necessary for the duration.
Cheers

flu round
went for a spin today, not expecting much but the track has to be the driest, fastest and smoothest i've seen in a while so was happy to hit a new pb, still trying to shake a touch of the flu and that showed on the second lap aswell as that turned into a 39 min lap!!! proper died off!! so fitness is still a work in progress!

1st timer advise
Hi guys / girls.
I have my first race coming up and just after any advice some of the vetrans can give me. I know its a bit of a vaige question but any knowledge you can pass on would be great. I am racing in the Banzai LifeCycle at Mount Annan the 24km event. My training has been going well getting quicker and more confident every time I ride.
Cheers

Nice Long Ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook station carpark.
One of my favourites - The Oaks plus detour up to Hazelbrook and then back down.
This is a long and steady training ride I am not that fit at the moment so the pace will be easy enough but with no stopping (its training not a social gathering).
Thank you.....
My brother and I used to ride a series of trails north of Red Hill. A big climb up from the Parkway, miles and miles of tight winding single-trail, finishing off with my favourite descent of technical downhill that really tests you. It’s here I’ve had the most “oh-shit” moments and broken bones, and everywhere else I ride ends up being compared (usually unfavourably) with this loop.
We did this ride for the first time in quite a while about a month ago and found all the ramps etc on the downhill had broken and were falling apart, rendering most of the best sections un-rideable.
GT Bikes?
Is it me or are GT bikes unpopular? I was at Stromlo on the weekend and a race was on - I didn't see 1 GT bike...fleets of Giants, Trek, Specialized etc, Was I not looking hard enough? I've fallen in love with a GT Sensor 2.0 and I just feel like I'm miss informed about something?... We then headed over to Sparrow hill for a loop and I still didn't see any... What am I missing? :s
