Well V and I are heading off to race in the Otway Odyssey, we figured it was time to test ourselves on the "hardest 100km race" its got 3500m of climbing so they say, Im going to be taking the single speed just to make it that much harder.....

Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
I am doing the Fat Tyre Festival and looking at my calendar this looks to be my only time I have to put in a few laps. All welcomed to join me. The laps should be at a descent pace with breaks in between.

First DNF
Just putting it up as a record even though it's months after the event.
Total mudbath. Arrived and started late as really wasn't in the mood for a wet race! Rode slowly with Sam, Loz and Shano.
Didn't make the cutoff at Stromlo which I was glad for anyway!
Somehow 1st
Only adding now months after the event to keep a record.
Race shortened due to rain.
Probably the only time I'll win a race!
Gov't support for mountain biking.... in Scotland !
Just seen this article in the Sports section of the Herald, a Glasgow broadsheet newspaper ( right alongside the reports of the latest Celtic Rangers football match).

The level of government and non government cooparation and involvement sounds great........ maybe we can dream of something similar ?
Western Sydney Parklands
The Western Sydney Parklands Draft POM is available for comment now:
http://www.westernsydneyparklands.com.au/page/pl...
Specifically includes investigating a mountain bike course in the Abbotsbury (from memory) area, more generally speaks of creating a regional active recreation hub in the parklands including possible new mountain biking facilities and a few of the precinct specific sections (other than Abbotsbury) seem pretty open to me from a mtn bikers perspective. Anyway this is probably not the right thread for it!
Ryde Ride
I was heading out to ride at Wisemans on Sunday morning however hit the rain on the M2 about Beecroft and thought better of it - so headed back to the city via the Beecroft turnoff and down Epping road. Right at the top of Epping Road there was a bit of reserve and I saw 2 mountain bikers coming out of what looked like dense bush onto the road. I wondered if anyone knew whether this was real riding tracks or these guys could have been bush bashing?
In for the Fling Mega loop - Part 2
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
End of Ralston Ave.
Same sort of deal as last week, training ride to try and survive the Fling aiming for around 50-60kms.
Plan is Cascades, Wildflower, Ryland, Perimeter, Long, Duckholes and Chiltern.
From here we need to decide to either continue down to Narrabeen and Oxford Falls or turn around - time and legs dependant.
