Bike Workstand
I'm sick of propping my bikes up on chairs and boxes, i need a workstand
Anybody got any recommendations for a good bicycle workstand.
I'm pretty keen on a DIY if it turns out more financially viable.
Any comments appreciated
Thanks

Awaba XC Build Day - Sunday September 14, starting at 7am.
Its time for our next build Day, the following is an email from the HMBA XC coordinator.
Build Day is Sunday Sept 14 kicking off at 7am.
Hi all track builders!
Since I last updated you all we had a very successful build day 3 and unfortunately had to postpone build day 4 due to bad weather. But it's on again and hopefully this rain we are having will clear by then. Keith Bruce and I walked a fair chunk of the yet to be built tracks on 31st and checked out what's ahead so have a plan for us to open up approx 500m more track on this next day.

St. Helenas trail restoring days (Sept + Oct)
Hi guys!
I just received this from MWMTB and thought it might be of interest as we often talk about wanting to help maintaining our trails. Sounds like this is an opportunity at the Blue Mts. St Helena's track which many of us have enjoyed in the past
Cheers
Carolin
"Received a request from Peter Miller for volunteers to help restore the Saint Helena area in the Blue mountains National Park.
All those who use the Oaks fire trail would be familiar with this area.
See attached letter and web site http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/st_helena/
if you can spare some time.

first ever 100km enduro
Well boys and girls that was the toughest race I have ever had the pleasure of doing.
I went into the start not quite knowing what to expect or how I was going to cope. I had had a crazy couple of weeks leading up to the race that meant that I hadnt been on the bike since Rob's anti-social ride 2 weeks prior. http://nobmob.com/node/6068
I would like to say I went into the race with my legs well rested.
