A Century of Manly Dam Night Laps
The Challenge
100 Night Laps of Manly Dam
There's no time limit. My goal is to get it done in next 12months via double laps on the Wednesday night rides.
You can do it in your own time. Evidence required e.g photos, garmin, map my ride, strava, signed stat dec etc
I can organise a jersey with "A Century of Manly Dam Night Laps" or similar for those who complete the challenge. Price to be determined.
Look forward to any comments or updates on progress.

Are the Perimeter works finished?
Did anyone not ride up there over the weekend and not notice whether or not the works were not finished?
Cheers!

Garmin 500 Barometric Altitude Accuracy?
I use a Garmin 500 to log my rides and have noticed today that I am getting some dubious altitude readings.
Today I got a 150m spike, up and back down again, in the first 200m of the ride log. Now I know I am good but even I couldn't ride that. I also did Bobbin Head Fire Trail down to the top of the steps, this was logged as being at -15m. I have gone back and checked past rides and last week it logged the same spot at -20m. The head unit had a software upgrade between these two readings

SMH article about Lane Cove
http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/planned-cycle-paths-in...
Article about Lane Cove park, I think that it's on about a paved path rather than single track, but some may find it interesting.
What I found interesting was the part about Centenial Park. It would be great if they opened up the outer loop to mtb, there's plenty of people who ride it now but I don't think it's legal.
