Glory run down McPhails this morning

Just reporting in on a great ride we had today. Took a day off work and headed down to Kangaroo Valley with a couple of mates.

We had an absolutely glorious run down McPhails - it was a perfect day for it. Track was dry and fast, the waterbars were in a "launching" mood, and there wasn't another soul on it, so we had a bit of extra fun in the switchback section by redoing some of the nicer berms a few times.

The climb back up Meryla pass was hard work, but the views, and "Avatar" like landscape helps to compensate.

Some pics to follow.

Rear derailleur mystery - Help please

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Help please.
Last week noticed my rear (LX) derailleur cable hanging way out at right angles and the outer braid was broken. I assumed I had snagged it on something as the cable had been pulled back from the bars and got it replaced. (Which was expensive after the tune et al.)

MTB motard racing

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

I was fortunate enough to catch wind of a 'test' race being held tonight at St Ives, around H.A.R.T.
Turramurra Cyclery used to hold a Wednesday night crit race round there before the powers that be made them shut it down as it wasn't a sanctioned event!
The clever way around this is to hop on a mountain bike and do half off road and half on road racing(motard)
About 20 people turned up tonight for the 'test' run so we could all get a feel for how it would be and give feedback at the end.
Well! what can i say apart from BLOODY AWESOME!

Please vote for DH in the mountains

Only takes 10 seconds...

At the moment 85% of respondents are in favor of the recent closure of Old Bathurst Road downhill trail at Blaxland in the lower blue mountains.

This decision has set a bad precedent.

Please take the 10 seconds to click no and even up the score for MTB'ers.

Thanks
