Cold Lube
Is it getting cold or what!? I was going to put some Rock and Roll Gold lube on my chain last night. And the instant the lube hit the chain it thickened and stayed as nice blob on top of the chain without running down into the link. Obviously this isn't going to help in prolonging the life of my drivetrain.

Bike racks (was I'll be coming thru Pymble)
I normally put my bike on the back seat (on a thick old sheet) with the front wheel off.
I can bring my rack thing but am not 100% it will fit on it. Some duelies do, some don't. It's a hatch back rack, not a tow-bar one. We can try. If it does not work I can tow you there! Have you done 70 km/hour on it yet?
Distance c/l to c/l of the 2 poles is: 400 mm

Review by a Newb: Specialised FSR Expert vs.Trek Fuel Ex9 all '08 vs. Mystery Bike
Hi All,
I have been mountain biking for a year on my sub 1K hardtail. I have done over the 1000k's I promised I would do and now its time for an upgrade. I am unsure how useful this information will be due to my lack of experience..but you never know (Hope that is enough disclaimers)

Action to prevent motor vehicles at Cascades
I have been in contact with the Garigal NP rangers regarding stakes and logs and other entry prevention methods at Cascades. This was brought up in the none too tactful Cascades - NPWS Stupid, Dangerous and Ugly post.
Their explanation is below...

Went out to penno park last
Went out to penno park last night which was pretty good fun and a decent test for the lights we purchased. Anyone interested in doing Terry Hills on Wed night? We have never been out there and if we are to venture out in the night it would be nice to have someone that knew the area.

social night cruise *NOW WED*
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Terrey Hills Tavern (2 Aumuna Rd, Terrey Hills)
Note: now moved to Wednesday night by popular demand.
Anyone interested in a SOCIAL CRUISY ride at Terrey Hills on Tuesday Wednesday night? Just a nice ride, no ‘roid boys invited unless they will ride slow – I imagine there are people out there who aren’t going to Dirtworks? And us of who are still have days to clean our bikes...
Plus I have a work function Wednesday night and touch Thursday night...
MEEEE
Rainfall (last week):

Dirtworks Car Pool
Ohh, ohh... it's less than a week to go to Dirtworks!
Hope we're all ready and raring to go?
Anyhow, in the interests of trying not to cause huge traffic jams at the ferry and saving the obvious expense of the petrol are we all lined up with car pooling up there?
FWIW looks like Liam and I will be travelling together but there's room for one or two more (depending on the shape of your bike) so shout out if you want a ride from LNS area sometime after midday Saturday, and to return later (after the presentations) Sunday.
