Terrey Hills update for 10 Aug
Perimeter (from Echunga) and Long very dry now. Rare spot of 'squish' on Perimeter where the trail is dished rather than cambered. Veil Schnitzel at Tavern very nice.

Show your support for LCNP trails!
Next week (Aug 18) there will be a NPWS public meeting regarding the LCNP plan of management. As previously discussed, and as per the meeting here:
If you care about riding in LCNP or other Sydney parks it's important to turn up and show your support. Please make time and come along if you can.
I guess they are expecting a large turnout as you must register your intent to show up at this meeting, by one of these methods:

Hi All,
I competed at the 12 hour on Saturday and realised that I am fitter than I thought.
I was wondering if anyone had an unwanted Angry Dr ticket? Please

Need a lift to the 3 Ring Circus ride?
Hi
Does anyone need a lift to 3 Ring Circus event? I'm driving down Saturday morning and looking for some company. Plan is to leave Balgowlah at 6am, arriving around 8am. If you're keen and live on the Northern Beaches let me know and we can work out logistics. Sharing petrol cost would be good.
Cheers
Paul

SRAM Power Link Recall
Received this mail from Jenson over the weekend:
SRAM has announced a voluntary recall of some PowerLock 10sp chain connectors. The affected products were sold separately with the connector by itself, and also as a connector that was included with a SRAM 10sp chain. The connecting link can fail, which could lead to a loss of control of the bicycle.
Although SRAM indicates that the potential for failure is low, out of an abundance of caution we are sending you this message and request that you promptly inspect your PowerLock connecting link:

Liverpool Council Bike plan call for submissions
Guys, just a headsup.
Liverpool council has produced a draft cycling plan and it is now open to public comments until August 19th.
http://www.liverpool.nsw.gov.au/LCC/INTERNET/me....
The plan mentions every form of cycling except MTB! Amazing when you consider how many young people live in that area, and the proximity to council bushland and reserves.
Now is the chance to be heard. Might also be a good idea to submit the excellent Nobmob Oxford Falls document as a reference item, since it covers many of the general social aspects of MTB.

First Solo Circuit
Well, you have to start somewhere, right?
Having taken the soft option things went pretty well on Saturday.
It's very nice to wake up at home, have a nice hearty breakfast then tootle over to the race circuit (albeit an hour-ish drive away).
