Commuting behind a Getz

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Nice day to commute - makes a change from the rest of the week.

You've got to love it when you have to brake downhill behind a Hyundai Getz, but when you get to the steepest climb on the route they still can't get away[1].

Talking of which, perhaps I'll do the silly commute training route if it's still as nice this evening:

[1] OK - so they got to the lights at Union/Blues Point slightly ahead, but I just trundled to the front of the queue and lost everyone along Lavender St. Smiling

PC == Mac

Well - given that a PC is essentially a Mac these days the point is mute.

And by that I mean when they are both running a decent O/S like Linux you can't tell the difference! Eye-wink

Ourimbah track conditions after rain?

Hi Guys
I'm wanting to go up to Ourimbah this weekend for a look at the course and get some training in for the Fat Tyre Festival coming up. However, having never been there before I was wondering how well it would've coped with this rain we've just had?

Thanks in advance
Phil

PS Have looked at the Nobmob weather page

Seeing as there seem to be a few new bikes out there at the moment I thought what better way to bed in the new beasties than with a saunter along some familiar trails. I'm gunna do Duckholes/Centre/Perimeter/Long, followed by a skinny flat white & some sort of sugar coated pastried fruit pie.

Everyone welcome. Pace will be social, the ride is approx 40k's and you can dump or join at the half way point (ie the shops again).

Whats it worth?

Hi,
I just received a medium 08 Reign 1 frame and shock(RP2)as a warranty replacement on an 06 frame that gave up on me and was wondering if anyone could give me an idea on what it might be worth. Ive had a good look around online but cant find anything out there to guage its value. While I do fit on a medium with a long stem and setback seat I think I might be more comfy on a large so I can shorten up the stem etc. So now I'm thinking that I'll sell the Reign and find something else in large if the $$ difference is acceptable.

Any opinions would be great, thanks.
