How long for Manly Dam trail to dry up
Just wondering, what's the consensus on how long Manly dam takes to dry up after it rains. it rained on thursday and i'm planing to go out tomorrow on saturday, do you think 2 days is enough time? i know that we probably should be riding there if it's wet so i don't want to bother coming out all the way from the city and have to turn back.
thanks

Technique: Get faster by riding slowly
Are you a pupil of the ‘no pain, no gain’ school of training? New research says you’ll get fitter faster if you take it easy.
Sounds good doesn't it? But we're not quite saying you can get fitter by sitting on the sofa. The trick is to ride in the least taxing of your training zones, the levels of effort that actually have an effect on your fitness. Let's kick off by taking a look at them....

Andersons+Oaks 10/08/08
I don't know if anyone is interested but I am planning on riding Andersons+Oaks on Sunday. My bother is over from London and last Sunday he went on his first ride at Terry Hills. We ended up covering 35kms and he wants more. The pace will not be fast but it will be consistent. We are just sorting out the logistics in more detail but will probably look at getting the 8.23am train from Glenbrook.

Another pricey ride
Well it's only been a few weeks since our mudfest drivetrain destroying nightride and one again this one will end up being expensive.
Turns out the disc was rubbing the caliper because the whole axle was bent when Tien used it as a seat.
Any ideas how much a Crossmax axle will cost!?

Need some training?

Hey all,
Looking for some training for the Doctor? Looks like its time for an Oaks up and Back. This will be a medium paced to ride with no dithering around - however if the roid boys do decide to come then there might be two groups and they can just leave later!
Should be a good ride - I haven't done the oaks in ages!

Tassie Trail
Hi,
I'm looking for some advice on best kit to buy for a trip I'm planning to the Tassie Trail. What is best type of bag for carrying kit, a back pack or under seat bag, I'm going light and have looked at the Carraidice SQR Trax, but all the MTB riders appear to use backpacks. Is this because of weight distribution? Any advice on this for a long ride?
Also what is the best head light to use for night rides?
Lastly has anyone done a ride like this (480KM's) and what sort of preperation did they do to get cycle fit for 6-7 days full riding?
Cheers
