Hey Guys,

I heading up to Byron Bay for a couple of weeks and am thinking of taking the bike as well. I've been doing a bit of reserach for some local rides and I'm quite keen to do the 40km trail which is part of the Freedom ride. Has anyone done this?? Is it easy enough to find your way around if the event is not on??

Interesting concept - crap advert

Not sure if it's technically a bike as there is no saddle or chain I can see, but puts a new spin on 'hike-a-bike' none the less.

Bicycle Sizing Tips " A must read"

Found this Bicycle Fitting website on a UK Bicycle Shop Site(http://www.twenty3c.co.uk/)

http://bikefitting.com/English/Frame.aspx note:I had to use Internet Explorer as Mozilla wasn't displaying correctly.

Anyone else had this type of fitting done? I think the Specialized version is called Silicion Fitting and slightly different to their BG Fitting Process.

Centre Track - South west

The fire trail behind the information sign at the intersection of McCarrs Ck Rd and top of the Akuna Bay road used to be marked on Google Earth as part of the Centre Track running up to Terry Hills. It has recently been cleared. Which sparked my curiousity, does it actually connect to the Terry Hills end? Is it ridable? If anyone knows the answers it would be appreciated. Thanks
