Ride to Work Feats of Strength
I scored second on this with 63km/h, but dropped to 3rd equal by the time I went for a shower.
In my defense, was eating a bacon and egg roll when I started and still had a mouthful as the speed peaked. Oh, and it had flats which were incompatible with my SPD commuting shoes 
Motorbike riders not all good!
Went for a ride last Sunday at Menai just like every other Sunday. As we got to the bottom of the down hill section we crossed 3 motor bike riders, stopped and seemed friendly enough. Before they took off one asked "if we go through here you reckon we'd ruin your pushy track?" we replied saying yes, you most definately will. They then took off and whilst riding up the hill spun their back wheels up the hill anyway, one tried riding over one of the jumps and got his back wheel caught ripping the track up even more as he wasnt going anywhere.
What size bearings for my Gary Fisher 29er?
Hello all,
I've had my Gary Fisher Paragon 2009 29er for about 6months now, and in that time, she's seen her fair share of sand, mud and capital punishment.
I am in the process of getting the tools to replace the BB bearings and rear hub bearings, as well as the head race bearings (at least I think that's what they're called).
Is there any way one can deduce what size bearings I need before dismantling the bike? I doubt my LBS will be overly keen to provide me with the accurate information, because I'm doing them out of business (could be wrong).
crap result but awesome event
One DNF = 1.5 hour lost
5 flats = 60 minutes lost
Flu and tummy bug = 2 minutes lost in last night lap
Best team time 1:02 by yours truly
Crap result but fun race.
Rocky Trail Round 4 Mt Stromlo
So who's going?
I'll be there. Heading down friday night, doing the 4hr and staying for the 4X and events on Sunday. Should be awesome!!!
I read on the site, that there won't be any camping allowed.... 
Does anyone know why we can't camp? Would help make it a bit more affordable.

Pittwater: Ingleside possible tracks
As stated in the Manly Daily on Friday Pittwater Council are developing a plan of management for the Ingleside escarpment and giving access to mountain bikers. The even better news is that there is funding to build some new tracks....will keep you posted....

dam presta valves!
Hey everyone. Im trying to figure out how to check my tyre pressures with a presta valve!! I've got a presta valve adapter but that still dosent allow my to use the tyre gauge on the compressor (dosent push the little pin in on the pump to let the air out). And my hand pump dosent have a tyre gauge. Its quite difficult guessing tyre pressures, i've pretty much got two choices....puncture.....or no grip :S
Could i maybe just switch over tubes to shrader valves? Or is there a reason im running presta.
Thanks.
