Wednesday morning ride?
Anyone game for another Wednesday morning outing this week? That's on the 2nd I'm talking about.
Thinking an 8:30 start. Possibly a variation on Sunday's ride but starting from Wyatt Ave.
Wildflower gardens + Ryland at 34° C in the shade... ;-)
Some (most) of the crew after the Wildflower Gardens and Rylands ride. 34° C in the shade...
Thx to Jono for organising!
Incorrect NPWS Signs
Spotted yesterday at Cascades (top of Quarry track climb), even though RFS site showed no ban and a check of the NPWS site showed no closures.
As with the Manly Dam rangers, NPWS can only garner respect for their signs and closures if they are properly implemented. Less than impressed with their processes right now.
Australian Singlespeed Champions 2009
I can't find the results to confirm, but rumour has it V is the new Australian SS Champ!
Congratulations V! 
Not smart in 30 plus heat
Lap 5 here:
Didn't help that it was stinking hot and I breathed in a fly at the bottom. I'm sure part of it's body (feels like wings) are still stuck in my throat even now! 
Was on the Yeti. Think the fat tyres help with grip on this challenge.
Hip And Miss
Hip and Miss is one of the little DH runs CTMBC uses for smaller club races, especially Twilight races.
A fast, twisty start. Nothing out of the ordinary. then you cross the road...
The long bermed Daytona corner points you straight at Super Dry. A largish double with a five meter gap. Some nice flowing and a small drop before the bottom is grin inducing.
The God Father
One of the Little DH runs CTMBC use for their club races, especially Twilight races.
The god father has a fast open start and then over a small triple.
A long right and quick left throws you at the "No VB" double then your into the hip, small single that can transfer to the road, another 2 small doubles and some twisty corners... Feet up, no brakes, grin like an idiot...
Best ride in a long long time.
I did the McPhails Downhill + Meryla pass combo this morning, and geeze what an epic.
FBT
The BT stands for Bumpy Track...
One of the little DH runs we use for club racing, especially Twilight races.
Some fast corners and small table tops makes for a great, confidence building section to start this leads in to some tighter corners and then into the bumpy section... Mogul like Millats buck you all over the place. The pinners find doubles, triples and tranfers through here. I just hang on and hope for the best. Out of the moguls and over a small double and down a steep (for lidsdale) little finish
