Tip required

My Raceface crank seems to be stuck on my bike. Does anyone have any tips how I may be able to undo the allan key bolt that holds it on? I did work out the part where you get the right size allan key for any would be smarty pants.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Bicycle rider numbers in the Northern Beaches

Just reading through the thread about the latest council meeting.

Is there any factual information on the actual numbers of locals (residents of the Northern beaches) that ride bikes in general? It would be very interesting reading, all the different demographics that ride different disciplines.

Yellomundie and NPWS

Does anyone know anything about if there is a problem at Yellomundie between riders and NPWS?

I have seen a few mentions here and there about negotiations between WSMTB and NPWS. On the Rocky Trail site I recently read something like "this could be the last big event at Yellomundie" referring to one of their events.

I cant work anything out from the WSMTB site, but does anyone know if Yellomundies future is in doubt?

Our Council is being left behind again!

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Check this article out from Jindabyne, again our council is being left behind by the forward planning in other areas;

I particularly like the part where they say, " Executive manager of environmental services Charles Litchfield assured councillors well built tracks required little maintenance and cyclists normally did what was required.

Sending a bike to NZ (and back)

Hi, for various reasons when I head off to Rotorua, New Zealand in October for a holiday and to then compete in the Single Speed Worlds (beer drinking competition) I won’t be able to fly with my bike.

So, I was wondering if anybody knew a good way to send a bike from here to there – and back again for a reasonable fee?
What mean is, UPS just quoted me $800AUD one way! – Crazy..
Of course I will have the bike professionally boxed. And the weight should be no more the about 14kg’s maximum once boxed up.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone freeloading on friday and interested to heading out to Yarramundi, I'll be there. The forecast has shown very little real rain fall in the area and not a lot expected this week, maybe the odd shower and friday to be sunny! I'll keep an eye over it the rest of the week.

Late reply from NPWS

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

While many people reported receiving this canned reply from Sally Barnes last month, for whatever reason I only got mine this week.

Which is a good thing I guess, because it reminded me to reply. I wrote back and brought up 2 points:
