Menai guided tour
A guy on Farkin posted about the huge number of riders at Menai yesterday. I replied that it was us. Anyway, he lives nearby and knows the area very well and he said that the area is awesome and next time we're there, he'd be happy to lead us around some of the best loops in the area. I like the sound of that.
Stupid Contest!
Bloody hell, burst both lungs. I want what Tien's on!
Garmin Edge navigation?
Hi,
I'm considering moving into the 21st century, having discovered the limitations of map and compass, and was wondering if we have any experienced Edge users who can attest to its functionality as a navigation tool. Specifically can you use it to help explore areas you've never been and will they get you home if you become completely disorientated?
I've heard vicious rumours you can use them to follow other people's tracks from, say, motion based, and suspect you might be able to create your own routes in say google earth/maps and then follow them?

Mysterious Downhill Course
Whilst driving from Hornsby to Galston one day I noticed some heavily protected downhillers walking their bikes up the road. Today I decided to check it out. Now about 500 metres west of the bridge I found what looked like a cycle path exit emerging from the forest just after a guard rail on the left hand side of the road while driving west. I walked about 50 metres along it and this does seem to look like the tail end of a down hill track. The track has has a lot of effort put into it at some point.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
