Take it easy on the roads - a rant
Did an easy 50km road ride out to Akuna Bay today. Quite a few cyclists about despite the late hour (left home at 11:30) and the camaraderie was good, with every rider lifting a finger to wave hello or acknowledging you with a nod. Heck, even the roadies were saying hi!
Unfortunately the mood was dampened by the muppet behaviour of *some* drivers. Sadly, it comes as no surprise to see on the news tonight that so far we have 5 dead on our state's roads since Christmas Day (yesterday).
Incident 1:

Byron bay
Merry Christmas everyone.
Staying in yamba, north nsw coast and curious to know if there is anything around here to ride. Even around Byron Bay. Anyone been recently. Wevknow there must be some stuff as there are a number of people selling guided rides but we don't want to go with a whole bunch of tourists.
Any advice would be great.

Need to deal with leg fatigue!
I need to do a fair bit of work conditioning my legs. Just get massive fatigue in the quads as soon as I try to put any power down. Not sure if it's just that I need some more K's?

Manly Dam update for 26 Dec
Great condition considering the rain in the area yesterday. A couple of puddles in the usual places. Trail is now nice and sticky and quiet... only say 2 other riders while lapping at 12:30 today.

Old Man's Valley
At a Glance
****FIRST STAGES OF NEW TRAIL NOW OPEN - MORE TO COME ****
Mostly cross country single track, built to IMBA standards, OMV is a combination of hand cut, machine cut, slick rock, rock armoured and timber board walk. Except for the Green Loop, OMV is relatively challenging with tight rocky sections, short pinch climbs, and includes extensive berms and rollers that help the rider maintain momentum and flow.
Stage 1
Green loop = 0.4km
Blue loop = 2.8km
Blue inc Black loops = 3.2km
Please use the new tyre scrubber on Quarry Road to remove mud from tyres - (Plant disease control).

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to all.
Here's hoping everyone has a safe and enjoyable Xmas season, and that either Santa brought everyone some great gear for their bikes or that you got the opportunity to have a ride before stuffing down Xmas lunch/dinner.
I received a couple of well-needed summer cycling jerseys, but the AyUp riding lights didn't make it in on the sleigh in time.
What did everyone else get for being a good boy/girl?
Cheers,
ChookLegs.....!
