MTB trickle down??
some interesting new enhancements to the data that can be collected using Garmin's Vector power meter pedals, Garmin claim platform offset can be used to improve bike fit, peddling efficiency and potentially prevent injury! The current design makes these pedals too vulnerable for MTB but it'll be interesting to see how long it takes for this tech to trickle down to MTB?
Gotta love tech toys 
Found Rear light - Manly Dam
Picked up a rear light at Manly Dam this morning - pm me with the make if you think its yours.
Tubeless Tyres
Being new to tubeless - what brings about a slow leak in a tyre? I've had the wheels for about 10 months and had to top up the air every few weeks. Now it's 20% flat after a couple of days. They are carbon rims so I don't think you can dent them - is it possibly a smallish hole in the tyre or more likely rims? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Bike week at Aldi
It's cheap it's cheerful, but mostly its cheap! My pick is the work stand but I would have a closer look at the tool kit if I didn't already have one. The sunglasses are pretty good too, exchangeable lenses https://www.aldi.com.au/en/special-buys/wednesda...
[Mod. moved to shopping]
I only stacked it twice.
My third time around - I've never made it the whole way without stacking it (or at least falling over sideways).
Lac Bassias Descent (1500m vertical at Hautacam, Pyrenees)
Now that's some proper MTB!
Love the variety of terrain on the way down. The guy gets a fair crack on down the bottom section.

Meeting at the station carpark... riding up and down the Oaks

Good climbs to test your legs and lungs, finished by a long and fast singletrack(and a bit of road climbing)
The Australasian Rogaining Championships campaign
What's this?!?!? A post not about MTB!?!? Am I spamming the site?
I hope not. I hope to give some insight on something else I get up to and share my passion for it with others who love outdoor adventure sports and show how it complements my cycling.
I have entered the Australasian Rogaining Championships which are set to take place in Castlemaine on Oct 11-12, despite my heavy workload and wanting to focus on my cycling for the Highland Fling.
Wanted: 20mm riser bars
After some 20mm riser bars. Preferably carbon and at least 720mm. Please let me know what you have.
