Cash Traders

Hi all

After hearing a friend had his expensive DH bike stolen the other day I thought I would post what I consider strange.
I saw a Giant Glory DH0, perhaps 2008, in Cash Traders at DY with $3000.00 on it. If I needed to offload a bike of that calibre, it would not be somewhere like that.

Hope it helps anyone

Someone says to me after a 30km ride at Ourimbah , "ya gotta go clipless.." the question is, do I ? and if so, what type do i go for.
I ride techo stuff and the occasional xc style stuff. I am also booked to do three races this year. Will i miss my flat pedals ?

Appin fun

When: 
Sunday, 11 April, 2010 - 08:00

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Appin
Meeting Point: 

North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.

Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.

This is posted as a social ride, i'm happy to stop to practice/play on the technical sections. I don't mind what pace we ride at.

Manly Dam update for 09 Apr

Area: 
Manly Dam
Status: 
Amber/Some Issues

Went for a lap last night (8th April), majority of track is good but the single track along the golf course/parkway had numerous puddles and needs more time to dry out.

Do you have more information?

If you've ridden here lately please add a more recent report. This will be useful even if the condition is the same as updates expire after 30 days.
Please do not post comments with such information - post a new update with the link above.

Abott - Mountain King?

No - I don't normally watch 'Today' or whatever it was. Testing HD tuners this morning Abbot and Gillard were having some kind of 'debate', though Abbot's choice of jacket was worth sharing Eye-wink

Anyone ridden Andersons Lately?

A very good evening to you all...

Has anyone ridden Andersons in the past few weeks?...i see that it was closed for sometime a few months ago and has recently reopened.

Have the bulldozers and clearers been at work and flattened it like they did with The Oaks? Particularly that couple of k's of gnarly downhill to Bedford Creek..is that still the same?

Cheers

Tom

mountain biking friendly flat/house

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi!

First off, I am not really sorry for maybe an off topic... hmm..

I am a New Zealand citizen of Russian origin and am moving to Sydney to take up a permanent job IT. However, I am quite passionate about mountain biking and so I am wondering what would be an optimal area to live - closer to MTB trails and trains that take you to CBD. Any pointers/hints would be very much appreciated.

Moreover, if someone is looking for a really nice flatmate with a PhD in mathematics and a passion for mountain biking look no further - I am your perfect flatmate..
