Carbon Wheels
So let's put money to one side and just talk about the product itself. And we might as well focus on the golden standard: ENVE rims.
Are these a good choice of wheels for Sydney? We've read about how strong they are in comparison to alloy, and that they are tried and proven on the WC DH circuit and Enduro WS etc etc but if money was no object would you ride the AM or 60/40 versions of these around our AM trails, the likes of M Dam, Red Hill, Cascades DH, and perhaps one or two others that we can't mention?

Hi There
I was wondering if anyone had recommendations on where to ride around Turon Gates (preferably from close to the camping ground).
Cheers

Tathra re-run debrief
Take two of this years Tathra enduro was run over the weekend.
Second time I do this event. It is a loong drive but last year was such a buzz I came back for more. If last year was good this year blew me away, some sections I could not remember had been added causing many spontaneous Yeehaas! Especially a snaking half pipe type of section that sent us on a laugh out load roller coaster ride. Unreal!
All of you - do yourself a favour and enter this event next year.
Cheers!

Connecting Manly Dam with Cascades
I'm looking to plan my next training ride and was wondering how people prefer to connect Manly Dam with Cascades. I've been riding via the road mostly, but would prefer to minimise the tarmac content.
I seem to remember a few people go via the pipeline easement down to Warringah Road, up and over the ped bridge, back to the pipleline easement, but not sure where to from there. From memory the pipeline easement is a dead end, trail-wise.
My google-fu has failed me on this occasion - if someone could post links to strava routes or give directions that would be brilliant.

status of OMV
Does anybody know for certain the status of OMV track in Horsnby? we were planning a ride there tomorrow but apparently there are signs up all around there saying track closed... can anyone confirm or deny this??

Withdrawn: Lightly used 29er wheeset
I'm looking for a set of 29er wheels to set up for commuting.
I have a Giant Trance 29er 2 with the stock wheelset and I want another set of similar quality to set up with slicks.
The wheels on the Giant are their "Giant S-XC29er-2 Double Wall" with a 15mm QR front and a regular QR rear. 10 Speed with 6 bolt rotors
If you have a set of rims laying around unused let me know!!

Crown Lands - Cromer North Trail
Don't know if I'm way behind the times here...
Dept of Trade & Investment are undertaking major works of the fire trails from the Cromer Connector through Garden of Gullies & what looks like main trail heading from Red Hill east past the Maybrook turn off.
Works to start in 4-6 weeks and will take up 1 month, the main trails will be off limits.
By the sounds of it they are trying to open the land to passive recreation with more policing of the trails to discourage moto's
