The Pinch ride

Now that spring has hit, time to start planning some rides down at the alps.

Browsing the site I see there are some great photo's of the "The Pinch ride" down Jindy/Thredo.

Does anyone have a google maps file and/or gps file for this ride ?

If so could we get it posted on the site for reference ?

Menai Single Track

Below is a preview, click to read the full post
When: 
Sunday, 6 September, 2009 - 07:15

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Menai (Lucas Heights)
Meeting Point: 

Lucas Heights Community School, 132 Old Illawarra Road. Barden Ridge

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

The ride will be predominantly single track at a medium pace. It will take in some technical climbs, technical descents. flowing single track and a visit to both of the "North Shore" areas. The free ride areas consist of just about everything from small drops and gaps to large drops and gaps and of course some great berms. We will have a couple of runs at the two different areas and then move onto more single track. This ride is probably best suited to riders who have an intermediate skill level.

Off to Appin again

When: 
Saturday, 5 September, 2009 - 08:30

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Appin
Meeting Point: 

North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.

Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Will be heading down to Appin again this Saturday for 2 - 3 laps. Will be there about 8.30am but may be a little late if I encounter any traffic. If any one fancies joining me let me know, I'll be glad of the company.

Will most likely be taking the singlespeed hardtail out so it won't be fast laps but I'm aiming to do a reasonable pace.

UPDATE: Time now updated to 8.30am as 8.16 seemed a bit to fussy. Not sure what happened there.

Cheers

Dave

Why shouting is better than a bell

So... I'm riding off the bridge and down to Hickson Rd this morning when some muppet doesn't see me at corner of Kent & Argyle.

A quick yell to attract his attention sees a stalled car and coffee in his lap. Nice Smiling

Show me a bell that works that well... and without moving your hands either! Laughing out loud

10mm bolt through rear

I have just ordered the 10mm bolt through conversion for my Hope Pro II hub from CRC.
Unfortunately, CRC did not have any 10mm bolts in stock and i am too imptaient to wait.
Any suggestions on 10mm bolts, what types, where to get them.

i'd love the DT Swiss ratchety one, but the finance director will have my head if i spend too much.

PS: 2007 Kona Coilair, 135m hub spacing. Hope ProII hubs
