Some Sun

Even in the sun blankets were sometimes mandatory... especially for the older ones who feel the cold Eye-wink

When: 
Saturday, 16 August, 2008 - 08:00

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Menai (Lucas Heights)
Meeting Point: 

The meeting point will be opposite the ANSTO nuclear reactor. Park on the road shoulder opposite the ANSTO sign on New Illawarra Road.

As described in the heading this is a freeride and downhill ride at Menai where we will visit several of the freeride constructions and also the very good downhill track. There is no shuttle. Everyone will be pushing back to the top.
Also we will go for a general pedal about the place for the sake of some exercise and to get muddy.
The pace will be relaxed with plenty of time to repeat jumps and downhill runs.
I've set a limit of ten riders to minimize congestion.

WWS 2008 Round 6 - Stromlo

When: 
Sunday, 24 August, 2008 - 08:00

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Stromlo Forest Park

The final 8 Hour for the BMC Working Week Series for 2008 is at Stromlo, and it is indeed a part of the Nissan UCI World Cup Festival - in fact, it's the very first event of the Festival (one week beforehand)!

It's a bit of a hike, but NobMoB has had some good results in the previous rounds, and the 8 hr format is really good fun.

I'm planning on heading down Sat arvo with Groover, camping overnight.

This will be good preparation for the Scott 24, getting to know the track, logistics, camping etc.

Chilly & Steaming at Yellomundee

Rob starting the climb

It was a very nice day at Yellowmundee this weekend for their round of the Working Week Series. Good course, dry weather (just) and plenty of top NoBMoB company and banter made for a most enjoyable race day.

Mind you, the early start (6am) after late night (2am) wasn't easy, nor was the freezing start (yes, the car thermometer saw 1 degree on the way in).

Sam & I had paired up in the duo of 'Two worn out Nobs', the start being decided on the flip of a coin which saw me shivering by the river just gone 8am.

Bit of riding on Saturday

Skinny was acting a moving tripod. It was over cast when we started but then the sun popped out so the light is a bit harsh in places, I need to make up a flare guard or sumthink.
