Resident Tiger Snake
Hi everyone, just thought I'd post a little warning about a local tiger snake which occasionally suns itself on the Perimeter Trail in Terrey Hills. I live at the beginning of the trail and i've seen it in the area around the first few k's of the track (they are territorial), generally from the beginning until the beginning of Smiths Creek (and presumably some of Nerang). Most snakes tend to slide off the track but this one plays dead until you get to close and then strikes.

Cross Training?
Hey,
Just curious as to what you guys do for cross training? and no I don't mean cross-training the road bike or the motorcross bike.
When I just started getting into MTB'ing I used to do windsurfing and gym work. This brought a whole lot of benefits in terms of strength to the upper body etc. Now it seems as though I only ride and ride and the upper body ain't doing a whole lot of stuff. The back is beginning to suffer a bit cause of the combination of desk work ALL FLIPPIN DAY! and riding. (not that I ride that much)

GNR 50Km of Fun (not training)
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
This is a placeholder for all the 'C' group riders who only want to do part (50Km) of Steve's training epic, starting from the same place at the same time.
With any luck the two rides will meet up after, or somewhere on GNR.
'B' group are assumed to want to do Steve's ride, but just not so fast - no separate post for them. They do get the option to bail at various points, but if you feel you can't ride 50Km at a good pace (in 4 hours elapsed) then perhaps this 'C' group is for you.

Andos/Oaks Ride Share This Sunday?
Re: http://nobmob.com/node/4745
It looks like Rob will be leaving LNS at the unearthly hour of 5:45 aaaay-emmmmm this Sunday
Putting the usual offer of ride share out there, any takers? Car can handle 4 riders and bikes, but 3 is probably more comfy. Will probably be driving out along the M2, etc. to get up to Glenbrook so there's not that much scope for pick ups I'm afraid.

Tyre recommendation
Hi Everyone,
Can anyone recommened a decent tyre? Looking for 2.00 or 2.10, mainly for fire trail, single trail use ie The Oaks, Manly Dam, Other Blue Mtns rides etc

New line @ 19th Hole
The new line is actually the corner after the 19th hole. Although it was funny being there on foot and seeing the track from other direction. I had never seen that drop off the 19th hole on the far left. Looks quite doo-able.
