Black Snake
So I was taking one of my regular rides down the Cascades yesterday afternoon and at the bottom of one of the short steep descents a 1 metre black snake was crossing the trail ahead of me. I saw him early and had plenty of time to ease up and let him go about his business. But I was wondering how common are snakes on the Beaches? Does anyone here avoid riding solo on weekdays for this reason? It kind of freaked me out.

Injuries
A conversation between my daughter and I whilst riding to school this morning;
"Ugh, dad my back's sore!"
"Why?"
"Well yesterday I was standing on that bar between the seat and the handlebars and my brakes locked up and I came down and the seat hit me in the back" ;*(
"Wow! I've tumbled down mountainsides, shoulder-barged trees, flipped over handlebars and smacked my head into low branches but I've NEVER hurt myself like THAT before!"
"hmmm, it's a new one."

OMV Maintenance Session
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
End of Quarry Road, Hornsby - Parking is well signposted, directing cars to park at the END of the road. If this is full, park in the Dural Street carpark.
Monthly trail maintenance of OMV.
The regular track maintenance session is happening on Saturday the 7th September @ 2pm. (always 1st Sat of the month)
It's also the general election day so recommend you get your vote in the morning if you intend on attending the trail session.

Coondoo Choc Foot 7hr
Round 2 of the Chocolate Foot series was delayed by a couple of months due to the bad weather but the time had come to ride Coondoo Road single track again.
Team BMORC were coming off a good 2nd place result in round one in a pretty thin field and we knew competition would be much tougher in Nowra. Unfortunately, Paul managed to break his wrist and we needed to find a replacement rider. Cue Mr Pidgeon who performed very well in his first short lap race and allowed us to stay in our category to go for an overall result in the series.
