Great Northern Road - How does it hold up in rain?
Hi,
I'm thinking of riding the 75km loop of Great Northern Road tomorrow. Does anyone know how it holds up under rain? Are there any creek crossing that might be high?
On that note, anyone have an update on the creek crossing heights on Andersons?
Cheers,
Kym
Maintaining fitness and skills when trails are too wet to ride
What a pain in the backside this wet weather is! With the Mont in less than three weeks, just when I should be getting out and hitting up places like Manly Dam or Ourimbah to up the intensity, refresh the skills and get the brain in the groove, the trails are so sopping wet that rding off-road is impossible without taking weekends away like we did to Queanbeyan last weekend.
I'm planning on hitting up back-to-back intervals spin classes at the gym tomorrow morning, but this doesn't do a lot for bike handling skills - trying to bunny-hop or rail a berm is going to look kinda funny 
Building my skills
Hi
I have just joined up and thought that this might be the place for some advice. A few months back I went on a beginner skills clinic run by a company in the Northern Beaches called Sydney Bike Skills. It gave me quite a bit of confidence and I have been having a great time mountain biking on various tracks, suck as Manly Dam, Duck Holes etc.

I am selling the standard wheelset that come witht the Giant Anthem X29er 1 (2011 model). The wheels were switched as the bike was bought and have never been ridden. They come without rotors as they were put onto the new wheels.

Sweaty eyebrows
Whenever I wear glasses riding (sunglasses) they either steam up or they get dribbles of sweat on them from my eyebrows.
This obviously defeats the purpose of wearing them as I cannot see anything through the misty, sweat marks.
Is there such a thing as glasses that do not mist up and have some sort of rubber eyebrow band built in to stop the excess sweat going on to the lens?
