If anyone is ordering gear from ChainReaction over the next week or so could they let me know please. I'm after a set of grips I haven't been able to find anywhere else but can't justify the 25pound postage cost.

Thanks

Best of both Worlds ?? - which pedal

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi All,

Have been looking at replacing my current platform (came with the bike) pedals with something that takes cleats,but as I have never ridden with them before, thought I might get the best of both worlds by getting a set of pedals with both cage and cleats. Both Shimano and Crank Brothers have a number of models - M424, M545 and M647 (Shimano) and Smarty, Candy C and Mallet C (Crank).

Pipped at the post...

Hi Paul

You beat me by 30 seconds - even though we rolled across the line together. Some cunning tactic?

Anyway, well done mate!!!

RNP on Sat?

I have to go down to Taren Pt on Saturday morning... so fancy a quick trip round RNP seeing as it's down that way and haven't been in ages.

Anyone feel like coming along? Nothing silly early, like.

Xmas BBQ

When:

Saturday, 15 December, 2007 - 13:00

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Meeting Point:

BBQ Area 1C, Manly Dam. Drive to King Street, Manly Vale then carry on into the picnic area. Will confirm just how far in 1C is later.

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Just to set the date.

Have booked BBQ area 1C on Dec 15th. The area is reserved all day so the tentative time of 1PM is changeable. If we go for a midday ride (mad dogs and...?) and it's stinking a quick dip in the Dam might be very nice before some fud.

Sadly the covered areas like we had before were all gone but given our immense stash of poles and tarps and portable gazebos I'm sure the NoBMoB gang can do something about shade.

Things seemed to work out quiet well last time, so same deal again? Basically, BYO everything?

Fling Vertical

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

So, you all know The Fling was easy, right? Didn't have any big hills, right? Worst of 'em was the Halfway Hill which was only 75m or something, right?

LOL... nope! Rob has been telling people this, but noticed on his GPS profile the bottom of Halfway Hill was almost a full 100m lower than the organiser's profile made it. Wow, that makes that a 175m climb which is a bit more of a challenge - how can they be so wrong?
