Rob's Dimmer Control (in enclosure)
Although the PCB was used as a template somehow the holes thought the transparent box and into the aluminium frame didn't quiet mesh and those PCB holes had to be enlarged (on the right - lucky there was room).
The switches have waterproof 'boots' and all other holes will be filled with sealant to make this pretty much water tight.
Back switch (left in photo) is on/off, on being down so it won't get knocked 'off' if by some chance we hit any hanging branches. Left switch (top in photo) gives three position dimming.
Two trim pots (blue - to the left of the photo) give adjustment for the two lower 'dim' levels.
Rob's Dimmer Control (layout)
The schematic as laid out on veroboard. Blue = copper on the back, red = wires on the front, white crosses = where to cut tracks on the back.
Note that the power wires will actually be connected just South of the capacitor, but the other unconnected (yellow) wires do indicate pretty well where the dimmer switch will be connected.
Red Hill - Sunday 26th 7:30am
Hiya All,
Due to bushfires in the mountains we have decide to skip the Oaks and are going for Red Hill. We are aiming for a 7:30am start.
Look forward to seeing some of you there.

Night ride - Wed 22?
Anyone up for a night ride Wednesday 22nd?? Around 7:45? I can actually do Tue or Thu also so am open to suggestion 
Anywhere fire-trail like is good: Cascades, Terrey Hills, even a couple of out and backs at Oxford Falls (Five Mile + Slippery Dip).
Beware the phantom sticks!
One easy way to snap your rear mech off is to keep pedaling when this happens....
Oxford Falls 7am 19th - Sunday
Hi all,
Sorry for the late notice but a couple of us are heading to Oxford Falls tomorrow morning. We plan to do the single tracks and probably a couple of laps of the XC track.

Short track XC racing 2.30 this Saturday St Ives Showground
have a look at http://www.mwmtb.com/ for details, looks like a fun Saturday! Anybody else thought about this or fancy giving it a go?
If you've not been to St. Ives Showgrounds before it's got some pretty cool wee loop tracks that'll make for some interesting racing both for participants and spectators. Plenty of berms and a bit sandy (depending on the rain).
Post a note if you're going and fancy saying hello.
TTFN.
