Red Hill update for 03 Jan
Extremely unpleasant ride, standing water everywhere. Gave up after a few kms in....
shame, it took like 6 months to dry out and 1 week to sodden it again...
Do you have more information?

Hong Kong
Hi,
I'm heading to HK for a few months but not taking my bike due mainly to storing it in a small apartment.
Has anyone been riding over there or know of a good place to hire a bike or if there is any good trails?
Cheers

Mont
Im keen to ride in the Mont this year if anyone is looking to get out of a team or needs another member.

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Coming from Sydney, drive into Queenbeyan, turn left at the roundabout where Red Rooster is and stay on this road for about 11km. Park on the side of the road where the gate is. For better directions try this link CORC: Events: Race Venues.
Well, it's sold out already, but for some reason not in the calendar.
Click the star if you're in and see you there!

Brakes
I'm thinking of changing my brakes on my rockhopper to something better then my Tektro Auriga Comp's. I find they don't have much power, and feel. Anyone have any suggestions? And am i limited to my rotor size by my bike or can i go bigger.
Thanks once again

Jamis trail X3 upgrade
Hi all
Curious to see what you think is the better more cost effective solution to a better ride. Currently have a Jamis trail X3 2009 which cannot currently handle the type of riding I would like to do eg. drops, small jumps etc standard trail riding / tech. so I am considering upgrading some of the components to make it a better ride or should I just get a new XC bike ? any feedback of your thoughts and recommendations of parts to upgrade or quality XC bikes that ride well and are durable would be great.
thanks
Matt

Appin update for 03 Jan
Not as bad as you'd think. Although the track is wet there are only a few places with standing water. The damp makes those roots and some sand patches very slippery though.

Wildflower Garden ride???
Happy New Year
Fellow nobmober's.....I was riding the management trail (east) around the back of the St Ives showground followed by a shortest descent to creek below, but was stopped in my tracks by what I think is the gates to the wildflower garden..... Question? How does one link up this trail with the other side (west to phillip st etc....). I did not attempt to trespass through these gates, however i did come across a single track to the right some 50m before these gates. This track is super steep, only Danny Macskill would ride down it. Is this the only trail around these gates????
