Withdrawn: Hayes disc brakes
Hayes disc brakes in excellent condition, front has scratches on the lever from a crash but works fine. These have not been on a bike for some time but work well, would recommend bleeding them up before use. Comes with 200mm front rotor and adaptor, 160mm rear. Must go make an offer.
Tathra Enduro Debrief
I have to share this experience.
Went down to Tathra to do the MTB enduro. Picked this event mainly because I've not done it and I've never been this far down on the south coast.
Tathra is a small community where a group of people have created unbelievable tracks. It's got fast flowing laughing out load tracks, technical bermed downhill runs, gnarly descents and best of all "The Bridges". I think it is the best tracks I've ridden. Better than what we ride at mont, scott and any other event we've all done.
Comparing The Oaks to Six foot track
I have never done the Six Foot Track by foot or bike but always wanted to. Now that I have managed The Oaks up and back I was wondering if I can now attempt Six Foot track as an up and back? There seems a little more vertical but the distances seem similar. Anyone got a good gpx file with altitudes so I can compare? Is there any drinking water available on the track do I need to carry everything? How much walking is there? I was planning starting at the cemetery in Megalong Valley. What do you think?
3 days @ Kiwarrick
Just spent 3 days at Kiwarrick at Taree. The trails there are amazing and we had a knowledgable local guide, Dave, who was also a great rider and top bloke. As those who have been there know, the trails seem limitless with single tracks galore, 40 kms and more! One of my favourites was the "Labotomy" which came after a gruelling uphill on a fire trail, the exciting single trail down with numerous switch backs was well worth the sweat going up to get there!
New to Sydney
I have recently returned to Sydney after a few years in Europe. I am trying to get back into the MTB scene, and I am looking for a ridding buddy. I live in the lower north shore, I am in my early 40's. I ride a Trek Remedy 9 and love the single track and downhill. I am a big fan of Manly Dam.
nite rider pro
i am having trouble with my night rider pro 1500, but i would like to find out whether it is the battery, or it is the charger, is there anyone that has these lights around the NORTHERN BEACHES area so i can test them...
2nd place in Male 3's
Round 1 of the Choc foot STM series was held in Taree this year - tracks I've managed to ride a few times.
With Taree being fairly far out and away from Sydney, I knew a few teams wouldn't make the trip out - although the trails would prove to be up with the best for racing. All the better for us.
I went out for a quick rece ride 2 weeks before the race weekend and was pretty impressed with the condition of the tracks. Come race weekend they were a bit drier and dustier but didn't show any signs of damage after the race.
Withdrawn: Garage Sale - XTR, Zipp, Carbon bars, Tune, FSA....
Hi. I'm cleaning out the garage. Lots of stuff for sale MTB and Roadie: some brand new / never ridden, some used, some well used. None crashed. Some really really good bargains here on stuff I have never even used (taken off bikes at point of build)
Make me an offer on some of this if you think I am too rich with my prices.
All goods can be taken to Convict race for collection this weekend (not for viewing / tyre kicking) or met in the City during the week.
Images can be provided via SMS, or I will get round to posting them asap (or just use Google - condition is as described)
MTB
Good bike shop in the eastern suburbs?

Sparrow Hill Kings hwy
For anyone who is interested , I rode Sparrow Hill this weekend. 26th April.
Last time I was there would have been over 3 years ago- when they had just started all the tree clearing for the Kings hwy deviation- i remember at the time it was quite sad to see so much of the forest cleared.
Well now the Kings hwy runs right through the middle of it! About 300metres from the start where the first fence used to be is where it runs through- there are several tunnels that pass under to allow riders to access the other side.
