Old Man's Valley update for 26 Nov
Rode this on Monday after work (24th Nov). Had that storm rain pass through after lunch so I went there half expecting not to be able to ride it, but it was fine - wood sections showed a bit of dampness but not so much as a puddle anywhere else. It actually started to rain on us again while we were there but another lap showed it was still totally fine to ride. Petty much rode all of it I think, without issue. Hopefully get there at least once more before I leave for England for good.

NoBMoB xmas ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Last years ride was a hoot so its on again - the NoBMoB xmas ride!
A moderately paced ride via Perimeter and Long trails and return to Terrey Hills - for those wanting a little more excitement we'll also take in some St Ives singletrail including Muppet Show etc and maybe Epiphany (recent reports suggest this is 'open' again).
2015 R/S Pikes RCT3 unbeatable price!
Hard to shop local when CRC have these at crazy prices!
Use discount code EXTRA10 for another 10% off already crazy prices on suspension forks.
Got 2015 R/S Pikes RCT3 150mm Solo Air 29 for $748. My LBS stated it costs them over $1000 after duties taxes etc!

Manly Dam update for 26 Nov
Still Green, little bit more rain to pack it down some, but just be careful of lots of sticks/branches etc. on the Cootamundra first section as they have been in clearing the bush like they did with the firetrail to create a bigger firebreak.

The Hellfire Cup - 2014 (aka a bunch of mates go MTB riding in Tassie)
What an incredible weekend away.
Its been a while since I wrote a race review, but this one is well worth some words - especially as it is still so new on the calendar, and one that ought to be a huge success in the future....
Its very hard to write-up a stage race – so much happens within each stage that putting it all together makes for such a huge long list of events that it’s impossible to get the ‘feel’ for the event.
Instead of writing up a blow by blow account of who won what, and who punctured when, let’s leave it at this:
Withdrawn: Giant Anthem X29er 1 - 2011 Model
I am selling my Giant Anthem X29er 1 - 2011 Model as it is never ridden due to me having too many MTB's. The bike is in great condition and I am selling it as it came, but have upgraded to carbon handlebars and will throw in a set of shimano clipless pedals.
It is a small frame and will fit a rider roughly between 160cm to 174cm.

This is a great deal for someone who is getting into MTB and does not want to spend a fortune as it is such a versatile bike.
Withdrawn: Kurt Kinetic Rock and Roll Fluid Trainer & Turnable Riser Ring
Kurt Kinetic Rock and Roll Fluid Trainer & turnable riser ring.
The Aussie retail on this is north of $800. Cheapest price I can find online is $699. Asking half that which includes the riser ring (usually an added extra).
Fantastic trainer. Fluid resistance unit is smooth as silk and quiet. Very heavy flywheel for realistic spin down.
Due to it's repeatable and accurate resistance you can easily estimate power efforts from a wheel speed sensor as discussed here:

Escape - Mount Rinjani. Lombok, Indonesia
I've trekked here... it's a volcano so sketchy as anything. I can also guarantee they didn't walk up there with bikes on their backs the whole way 
Oh... here's the missus & I on our honeymoon
