Tools - Borrow

Does anyone have the tool for the special nuts holding on the chain ring? I would like to borrow one for a short while to install a new chain ring?
Will be riding pennant hills Saturday if that is convenient.

Thanks
Craig

Grips & Blades

Ahhhhh... all the badnessness of couple weeks back is gone. New grips (ODI Ruffian) + new brake blade. All sorted.

Note to self: get some circlip pliers or a spare for next time. Luckily it did as it was told, but that pesky little clip could have shot off into the oblivion of the garage all too easily.

No LATTES For MEEEEE :)

I have joined the Specialized club and am totally in LOOOOVEEE!!!
Thank you to Harry for upgrading so I could get Mildred and to George and Peter who were ADAMENT she was the right bike for me...
Tooooooooo goood! Toooo happy!!!!
See you on the trails!
I’ll be the one on the baby blue sexy specialized with a grin from ear to ear!!!
(well, maybe not grinning on the ‘roid boy ride on Saturday that may be a grimace...but other than that!!!)

MEEE

If you ONLY had the choice between riding two types of MTB bikes would it be either:

Specialized?

Cannondale?

Don't care, they're both pretty good

Highland Fling v Dirt Works

Hey hey,

I have entered this years Highland Fling happening on the 11th Nov. I am doing the Full Fling!

My question is as I haven't done it before is how tough is it? I did the Dirt Works back in May which i felt was pretty hard...I have been off the bike pretty much since then with a knee injury and am only getting back to full fitness.

Any views would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Tom

Six Foot Track

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

The Six Foot Track is the old horse and carriage track that runs between Katoomba and the Jenolan Caves - while you can ride it in either direction (or both if you desire), when I last did it we drove to Katoomba, caught the bus to Jenolan Caves and rode back. It is a mixture fire tail, sniggle, paddocks, and steps, that take you over mountains, through forests, across rivers and over paddock fences. There are plenty of ups that hurt and brake glowing downs and about 1000 steps at the end to hike a bike up. It over 42k's because they run a marathon over the course.
