Hi Everyone!

Okay time to go for a nice spin on a Tuesday night (sorry Buck I can't do Wednesdays), no training, no fast riding. Just a cruise up to the end of the long trail and back to the pub!

Bring your lights too!

Well I'm going to give the new bike a spin on the weekend to see how it all goes.

It won't be a fast ride. The brakes have next to no power at the moment as they are brand spanking new so I'll be taking it all nice and easy.

I will probably start with Perimeter/Long. If I have time I may then join Tien and do Duck/Waratah/Centre tracks. I'll decide on the day in the carpark what exact track we'll do.

I need a new bike - SCOTT SPARK 20.?

Hi All,

I am starting the long hard process of looking for a new bike. Basically I ride three or four times a week. No real heavy DH stuff but plenty of fast trails and quite a few medium rocks / techy stuff. To give you a better idea, this year I am doing the BMC Working week series as well as Dirt works etc.

I was hoping I could get some feedback on the SCOTT SPARK 20..

Thanks for the input (in advance)

Cheers

Break in the new bike

Believe it or not the bike shop tells me that my bike is finally in after 5 months of waiting! Shocked I'll pick it up tonight hopefully.

Tien tells me he will be riding Saturday afternoon...possibly a long one. I'm not sure if I can hang around for hours but I'll definitely try and take the bike out for a spin. Track will most likely something around Terrey Hills. Nothing too technical until the brakes bed in and I get a feel for it.

Well if you interested give me a call or reply here.

Meeting Point: 

Glenbrook train station carpark to catch the 6.53am train dont forget to change your clock 1 hour backwards from current daylight savings time.

This will be a medium to quick paced training ride with the dirtworks in mind so there will be minimal stops and plenty of mashing up the hills (for me anyway on the single speed) I believe it is about 60km so you will need to be able to do that sort of distance with relative ease.

Meet at Glenbrook station carpark with plenty of time in hand to get ready and organized to catch the train now at 6.53am to Wentworth Falls from there I will need a guide as last time couldnt find Andersons and spent the day looking for it (would of helped if I had remembered to bring the directions).

Saturday morning ride?

Is any one up for a ride on saturday morning?

I was thinking a nice ride somewhere, no crazy pace just wanna get back out on the bike again!

im not too fussed about location just as long as it is not too far from the central coast.

Andersons & The Oaks - DW Training Ride 6th April

I would like to do Andersons & The Oaks as a training ride for the dirtworks so a medium to quick pace and minimal stops would be the order of the day I can only do this and will definitely (rain or shine) do it on the 6th of April.

As I haven't done this ride before it would be great to have a guide so if anyone is interested in showing me/us the way that would be great A reasonably early start 7.00am or or a bit earlier is always my preferred option.

Opportunity Knocks!

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

I think you guys have already provided me with contact info but.....I work at Fairfield Council so I have links into what is happening in the new Western Sydney Parklands; where the old Olympic MTB track used to be. The old mountain bike track is gone now as Council was made responsible for maintaining it after the Olympics and could not get 'user pays' to work.
