Saturday Lake Parra?
Calling Kurt, Noel, or anyone else that could play Tour Barbie at Lake Parra on Saturday.
I was interested in checking out Lake Parramatta, possibly in the mid-morning. But any time is fine by me. I could go by myself, but I thought it better to get a local with a bit of trail experience. Would we go for some of the more technical trails? That would be my preference.
And given the hubbub with the northern beaches at the moment, it is also a great opportunity to broaden one's horizons. Who else may be interested?
Can anyone help a brother out?

Appin WWS
I'm looking for 1 or 2 people to join us in a 3 or 4 person team. We are not going to win but will have a good time. The Appin round is on Sunday, 25/5/08. We will camp over on Saturday, but you can arrive on the morning if you prefer.

Ride this Saturday 17th
Anyone interested in a ride this Saturday morning?, i'm getting sick of the solo.
Training for the Angry Doctor, Fling, Mont & Scott

Sam Hill Maribor
Hope this works, could get it to embed properly so follow the link.
It's Sam Hills winning run from Maribor. He won by 3 seconds. 2nd to 8th was separated by 2 seconds. 3rd to 8th 0.7 seconds. The boy is a freak and dangerously averaged close to 54km/hr.
The lineside line he takes through the rock garden at the top and then the next corner is insane.
Commentary is a crack up with Cedric Gracia.

Ourimbah State Forest - Sun 18th May
Anyone up for some Angry Doctor Training at Ourimbha this Sunday? Thinking of going up and getting around 30 kays in, perhaps more. I'll stick a entry in the calender if anyone's keen.

Stuff from the US
Looking at the prices of certain things in the US got me wondering about getting some stuff sent over by a mate out there. Has anyone done similar and got away with it?

Trail Closure Protest Ride
Love you idea here http://nobmob.com/node/5082#comment-15726 Alex.
So here's what I'm thinking.
They clearly don't want us on the bush trails, lets show them what happens when we have to ride on the road.

Pennant Hills Park to West
"Pennant Hills Park to West Pymble
10 km, medium difficulty
A scenic ride that takes in the variety of vegetation types and offers great harbour and city views and nice spots to stop for picnics."
because mountain bikers are all riding round with picnic hampers i guess?
and the "useful link" underneath to rta bicycle maps has interesting results when u click on it...\\

Manly Dam night ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
As discussed in last week's ride, let's do Manly Dam as a change.
As you will all have seen we can only do the main Manly loop now as Bantry Bay is now closed. If one lap is too short then you can always do a second loop lights permitting.
There's no pub nearby here so bring a beer or two for the whinge session about trail closures after the ride
