Six foot track
Today I did the 6 foot track with Leon.
WE didn't ride all the way, just to the top of the first hill. WE rode from Megalong Valley, doing 25km all up. It was a surporisingly tiring ride.
THe views were spectacular, and the weather was interesting.
The descent from 700m -300m was fantastic. By the end I was going as fast as I could. My front tyre had a low enough pressure that when I applied my front brakes hard, it would fold a little, like a drag car tyre.
Rear Tire
Just received my rear tire for the 8hr @ Stromlow and what a corker weighing in at a scant 420grams for a UST tire Incredible!!.Looks fast just sitting there can't wait to test it out Oh it's a Schwalbe Furious Fred if your wondering
Manly Dam new section open

Garmin Edge Training Center - Please assist
The standard map in Garmin Training Center is crappy. Yes I know I can view it in Google earth but it looks like a million little photos laid down instead of a nice red/purple line. Please, I have been reading GPS and mapping forums and BS for about 2 hours. Save me! All I want to do is d/l a map and stick it in the Garmin folder and see a better map in Training Center. I never new the world of GPS was infinitely complicated.
A map with some topo lines would be nice, and a few more streets than the basic map shows.
Terry Hills BMX Track for dirt jumps!
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Meet at Terry Hills BMX Track. Its at Melbourne Memorial Reserve on Aumuna Rd just off Mona Vale Road.
Well i've got zero dirt jumping experience and have been wanting to try it for a lot time, so have decided to give it a go. Terry Hills BMX Track is well maintained, smooth, safe and flowing and i think is a great place to build up some skills and confidence. You can also roll everything and just pedal/pump the track which would in itself be good fun/practice.
If you would like to join me see you there at 10am this Saturday. I will be on my white & black NS street bike (in my sig)
Cheers,
Matt P's 'neatly' sewn up shin
Please note the dollar coin for scale 
Whilst this looks like it's been sewn up by a blind man in an earthquake, it's a damn good job considering the pervious carnage!
Take note kids - shin pads are the future
