motionbased problems
ok, i've not had broadband for a while and am now back in the land of the living with my new connection. i've been saving all my rides on my gps and they all show up on the history section. i've gone to upload them onto my inbox on motionbased and after initially uploading for a while it says once comlete that there are no new rides on my device!!!! what gives???
by the way, some of you already know i'm far from being an I.T. expert but this is a fairly basic task!

Access
I just obtained copies of maps put out by the NPWS which apparently are the final word on MTB access. Most of the popular trails are there as MTB legal with a few notable exceptions :
1 The section of Sandy Trail West of the the Cooyong/ Neverfail is classed as a walking trail . This is disappointing as it means the 20klm loop around Duffy's Forest is no longer possible.
2 The Cullamine Trail is walking only
3 The only egress from the top of the Quarry Track is shown as direct to Mona Vale Road through the tip
4 Cowan track is walkers only

WTF? Vic cyclists may face jail...
Where did this come from? What is the political motive driving this?

Lost Gear (@Wisemans Ferry)
I actually found a ToPeak Alien multitool at Wisemans Ferry on Sunday if anyone has lost one.
It looks like it was clipped to a seat

25,000km service for the Scummer
After deliberating buying a new road bike, what with the exchange rate and having already updated my mtb race bike this year I decided to rebuild my trek scummer.

Found lost property - Manly Dam
Yesterday I found an underseat clip on bag on the Manly Dam trail containing some MTB day trip vitals (estimated total value close to $100!) to keep their owner hopefully out of trouble. If you believe this is yours, please send me a message detailing the contents of the bag for its return.
I also found a muddy soaked navy blue XL zip polo jumper with a gold energy drink logo embroided on its chest. I left it hanging on shrub branch on the downhill single trail section above Manly Dam.

Angry Dr entry wanted please
I know it is a while away, but I was wondering if anyone has an unwanted ticket for the angry Dr 100km?
If so I would love to buy it off you.
Cheers
