Techno advice
Can anyone tell me the difference between an 11-32T and a 11-34T cassette?
And what is a top normal, and a non-rapid rise derailleur?
I've killed an LX drivetrain through lack of knowledge and Sydney sand and thinking of ebaying an XT spec. Everything is Shimano, but would consider SRAM if better for the money.
I need help.
NoBMoB Jersey?
Some folk think we should have some jerseys made... a few designs have surfaced... what you think? Comments please. Shout if you love it and want one!
The slogans read, "Get NoBBeD" and "Have you been NoBBeD Lately?" LOL
These came from the templates on Scody if you want to have a go with colours, logos, whatever.
Get a Cannondale
Dear "The Pannicar",
I would suggest that if you have enough money (like if you for example are an investment banker, photocopier sales person, master of Industry or Private School Teacher) that you look no further than the Cannondale range. They have the ideal bike for all styles.
Single Track
Hey guys,
This is my first post.
I am a very keen Mountian Biker (I love nothing more than cleaning my beautiful green Gaint Downhill bike - I wish that I could have afforded a Cannondale but lets not get started on that as I will just get depressed and I want to keep my first post upbeat).
Anyway, I have all the latest gear and am fully equiped for the most radical terrain (helps when you have 8 inches of travel but only weigh about 50kgs) and now I just need to starte venturing beyond the Manly dam loop.

GNR Fun (was Mini DW)
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Wisemans Ferry. Meet on this side of the East ferry. Park near little shop close to the ferry crossing.
Slight change of plan...
Not many people put up their hand for a Mini DW (read: "epic") and after a bit of chat on recent rides, and the fact distance events are over for a while we decided to tone this one down a bit. The new route becomes:
Meet Wisemans Ferry. Cross on East Ferry. Ride up Devines Hill (see below).
Decision 1: Ride down then up Shepherds Gully... votes on the day win 
Think ahead (see Decision 2) before voting
Ride the 'main event' - brilliant technical trail to junction with Western Commission Track.
