Maps
Hi,
I'm about to move over to Manly and am wondering what the best maps people are using for Garmin Edge units. I am able to get hold of the Garmin Topo maps for cost but have heard not so great reports on them. (maybe why I can get them cheap)

Bike warranty
Could anyone tell me if professionally painting your bike would void your frame warranty?
I'm talking about painting the bike when new, custom paint job.

Camelbak Palos (bum bag) what are your thoughts?
I've just been reading about Camelbak's new pack.
I'm trying to transition to riding without a backpack but this could be an interesting alternative.

Buller Accom
Planning a Mt Buller excursion with the fam + friends to Mt Buller over Easter. Some initial googling to find places to stay points me to a place called Mansfield but it is 35ks from Buller but that seems excessively far away. Are there better options?
Looking for something reasonably civilised that has a roof, walls and some form of device to keep the beers cold.
Would appreciate advise from Buller riders who knows the area.
Also climate, been to Thredbo in December and that was colder than what I thought, is end of March "safe" or is it getting a bit late in the season?
Cheers,

Hi All,
The purpose of this post is to provide a heads up on a little pest I encountered on Saturday afternoon, somewhere around Bantry Bay or the track behind the nursing home that runs onto Allambie Oval.
When visiting the bathroom post ride I found one of these guys with its head burrowed into my upper thigh under my trail shorts.
