byron bay - rides nearby
hi guys
going to byron for blues festival but taking bike (4 weeks to dirtworks) !!!!!!! (bride has okay'd it)..wondering what nearby rides exist ???
Blondies Training Ride - at slow speed
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
End of Wyatt Ave, Belrose - this is on the East side of Garigal National Park.
Ok, i am going to go from Cascades to St Ives Oval to Duck and Centre and back again – anyone fancy doing this with me? I am thinking this will be my last 'long' ride before the Dirtworks - If Paul twist my arm I may consider adding in going down Ryland and around the perimeter as well but not sure about extending it that much..!!!
Roid boys need NOTreply as this will be a Blondie training ride at Blondie speed...I will stop somewhere for a snack too!
i am guessing this ride will end up being about 35ks? or 40? In fact, I have no idea, it will probably feel endless. lol!
Mont 2009- So good!

I would be stoked to get a ticket, so if you can help out please get in touch..

24 hours of heaven, hell and everything in between
What a weekend, and in my opinion the best 24hr race ever, on the best course of flowing fast tacky singletrack. Our team, Mixed Nuts was ade up of Steve01, Gazza, Martine and myself (Whisperer), and contested the mixed 40+ fours.
It was great to be in amongst a huge NobMob contingent, with the spirits running high.
Place your Tee order here
I'm thinking it's time for another tee shirt order as I don't have one any more and was rather jealous of those wearing them on the weekend.
In case you forget, tees look like this:
Only we will have the spelling mistake on the back corrected! Ahem 
Price will be $20.30 each (so long as we get at least 20 orders) which is a couple bucks cheaper than last time. Woooooow.
Click on the image for sizing, etc. as per other order.
So... comment here with your order and will set up another running total.

Sparrow Rocks Robin
As others have already said this race completely rocked!
Gazza, Martine & I arrived to talcum powder dust on the roads and drove around in circles for a while before locating camp NoBMoB. It was a nice evening at this point and setup camp quickly. Annoyed to have left a cool bag at home (downstairs in the carpark - a bit stinky upon return on Sunday) sat down to other snacks for dinner and placed a shopping order with the incoming Buck & Gary (thanks for obliging guys).
The Mont / Sparrow Hill trails
Was at Mont but not riding in comp - was assisting 2 other teams - 1 kids, 1 normal humans. Did 85km or so on other Sparrow hill trails with some CORC riders I met - very friendly, very helpful.
My proposition is that BobSled run at Sparrow Hill (which the 24hr track used a tiny bit of) is the fastest, smoothest, most adrenalin pumping single track run through trees in Australia.
If there's better I'd like to know where.

Mont Provisional Results
Provisional results are here on Farkin:

The Mixed Nuts finished second despite a terrible start. Although I believe Steve02 made up for Steve01's mistake there by later posting the 3rd fastest NoBMoB lap with a 50:51 - fantastic effort guys! 
Yeah - sorry Steve, only number 3 - Alex did a 49:48 and SupaGav a 50:20. Although I hear the young-un (Alex) has no staying power and was passed by Steve06 later in the day!
NoBMoB Bit Test Icicles also finished second in their category.
