Stuart (and other Helmet-Cam'ers)
Show me your wares!
I've been working on improving the use of my GoPro Hero Helmet Cam. Mine is the non-wide lense. I have the helmet mount, seat post mount, and head mount. I have found I can use the head mount around my chest but got the angle wrong on test.
Check out my productions. Please feel free to vote/rank and/or leave comment. I know some of the resolutions are poor but it takes ages to upload decent footage to youtube, even with cable.

Remember when?
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Remember when nobmob rides were social?
Remember when we stopped for a beer at the look out?
Remember when we could take the mickey out of ourselves or others without being censored?
Remember when we waited for the slowest rider at regular intervals?
Remember when we had a chat and a laugh along the way because it was about the journey not the destination?
Remember when we were part of community and we all had a say what happened?
Remember the time we were out till after 11 because we did wait for the slowest?
No, well nows your chance to find out.

Manly and snakes
Is anyone seeing snakes up around the Manly loop? I've seen 2 big browns in the last few months, 1 up around Allambie and 1 right on the Wakehurst corner. Also a Red Belly just up above Heartbreak Hill.

Manly Dam After Dark – Blondies SOCIAL ride...
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
This is a social ride which means we will be re-grouping at all our regular spots SOOO, if you want to race around doing a ‘hot lap’, fancy doing a ‘training ride’ or don’t want to stop and wait for everyone else then this is NOT the ride for you!
This ride is a social ride – which means riding as a group and not losing anyone or leaving anyone behind.
This also means bringing a beer or preferred bevy for a chat after the ride – if you don’t want to do that either then this isn’t the ride for you

The Rocky Trail Show: which NoBMoB regular would be your pick?

Manly Dam 2 lap hotlap Challenge?
Hey everyone , just a thought. Perhaps we should write up a new manly challenge. Fastest time for 2 continuous laps.
After all...anyone can ride fast for half an hour
