New PB for PB
First time back on the bike since the Angry Dr last weekend. I could've been quicker too if I didn't have to stop for the group of old biddies asking for directions at the top of the 19th hole. One old dear told me "bikes have right of way", if only that was true... perhaps we once did, back in her day?
Tour de Timour on SMH
This was on the SMH front page... how come the world champs weren't? 
Anyhow... looks... erm... well maybe Wazza will tell us what it was like? 
Warringah Council Unstructured Recreational Plan
According to the agenda on their website Warringah Council are to discuss the Exhibition of the Recreation Strategy next Tuesday night (Sep 22). Agenda is here:
http://www.warringah.nsw.gov.au/council_then/War...
Draft strategy can be downloaded here:
http://www.warringah.nsw.gov.au/council_then/doc...
The strategy recommends:
Undertake a mountain bike and off road cycling research paper in an attempt to address the increased use of natural areas for cycling and to investigate the provision of at least one other permissible riding area in Warringah.
I hope we can view this as a small step towards a second authorised riding area.
It is slightly disappointed that the report doesn't make recommendations for better management of the cycling trails at Manly Dam but at least MTB is recognised as a significant recreational pursuit.
Wakehurst Parkway - Oxford Falls
Just seen some unfortunate fellow MTB'r (Giant Glory on the roof) being booked.
Beware for Friday arvo.......

Has anyone heard they were closing the trail out there?
CRC order - need anything?
I'm placing a CRC order to get some CB Mallets over the next few days.
CRC also has a sale on other items as well...
Let me know ASAP if you need anything.

Bar Mounted Lights
Hi All
I am loking for opinions on the best BUDGET option for a Bar mounted light to be used at The Scott 24 at Stromlo . I have a great helmet light , Cygolite Triden X which is great for sniggle but not quite good enough for fast fireroad ....or dodgey eyes . I am not looking to flash fry native animals , would be a great bonus but not necessary, but be able to do double night laps without going cross eyed . Battery life , cost , brightness , charge time and availability are all improtant ,1700 lumens aint ...
Thanks
Wayne
