Next outdoor adventure
Hi fellow Nobmobbers. I came across this the other day and if any of you out there are in pursuit of further outdoor activities then this might be your cup of tea. Looks like some pretty interesting, limit pushing type of stuff out there

Wingello State Forest update for 26 Feb
Rode the red loop today with a few hundred others in the Willo. In the misty rain on lap 1 it looked like a bad idea, sloppy, skatey and getting a bit cut up. A bit of wind and a smidgin of sunlight saw quite a bit of improvement in conditions on my second lap, but it won't take much more rain to get tricky again.
Do you have more information?

Wylde MTB Trail update for 26 Feb
This morning was a bit of a mudfest. The bike doubled its weight in a lap. Not sure what my mate was thinking when he said it was "OK".
Barely rideable this morning, any additional rain today will turn it into an ice rink. I'm surprised its open.

Port to Port MTB Stage Race - Entry giveaway here!
Entries now closed!
Win a complimentary ride entry into the 2017 Port to Port MTB race, May 25 - 28, valued at $440!
Port to Port MTB is one of the nation’s premium MTB stage races. A chance to experience some of the incredible tracks and trails we have in our backyard. OK - well, Newcastle's backyard, but it's not that far
The kind folks at Port to Port MTB Stage Race have given us a complimentary entry into this year's event to do with as we please.
While they suggest this could be auctioned off or used personally by an admin fairy I thought a more appropriate use would be to simply offer this entry to the community in a lottery.
If you would like to take part in this lottery simply comment (once or more, but multiple comments will not increase your chance of winning) on this thread before midnight on Sunday 23 April 2017 (AEST). The winner will be chosen at random the following day to give them plenty of time to register. NB: public registrations close May 23 so if you don't win but will still like to enter there's plenty of chance to do so.
NB: This is a multi-day MTB stage race. Please be sure you are able to complete the course and are able to meet other logistical requirements (transport, accommodation, meals and other incidentals are NOT included) before entering.
See the attached Ts&Cs from the event organiser.
... and good luck!

Cape Epic 2017 - Nobmobbers...
Hi all.
Whilst we all have various ways of keeping in touch and communicating these days, this site stills holds great community value and it is (even those on the other 'sister' sites) a relatively small group of web-based friends.
This year, there are a few Nobmobbers (and maybe some others I don't know about) heading over to Cape Town to race the Cape Epic.
Wayne (Dicko on here) Dickinson is teaming up with Mike(Blades) Faretta under the SXC / EXC banner. THey have been training the house down so will go well I am sure.
