Manly Dam update for 15 Dec
Dry as a dead dingo's donger.
I rode the descent to the Hydro Lab and the singletrack to Wakehust Parkway. The steeper sections from Allambie have dissolved into powder covered in loose rocks, and what used to be the line is now mostly erosion gullies.
This sectio nis now in extremely poor condition and desperately needs work and/or the new line recommended in the IMBA report to be implemented post haste.
The last roll down at 19th Hole has an alternate line forming on the right that is an improvement.

Wildflower Garden update for 15 Dec
The sniggle from the Wildflower Garden nursery through to Muppet Show is all good. A tad loose in places, but I'll take dry and loose over wet and muddy any day.

Cascades update for 15 Dec
Mostly pretty dry and loose, though the main track in from Acron Oval is fine and there are reasonable riding lines on the Ralston Ave and Quarry Track climbs and on Lower Cambourne. A couple of the water bars are getting a bit sketchy to climb up and there are a few sand patches to negotiate.

Red Hill update for 13 Dec
Just about as dry as Red Hill is likely to get which also means that it is quite sandy in places. Watch out in some of the corners. All good otherwise.

Terrey Hills update for 13 Dec
Rode Perimeter / Long / Cowan from Echunga Rd today. A few sandy areas and one big puddle on Long and the hill is a mess. A couple of trees down on Cowan, but all can be ridden around.

Why a bike is better than a woman
So recently, I engaged in a discussion with a friend that indicated that he would have to spend some time with his girlfriend in the coming days as I needed to get out on my bike after a long study period. This resulted in the conversation inevitably turned to "You should get a girlfriend, mate." Seeing as a good portion of other 20yos are with girls, it was worth a good session to consider whether I should give up cycling and find one, but I discovered 28 reasons why this shouldn't be the case. Enjoy (and don't take it too seriously)!
