Dry and sandy. Didn't come across any moisture on the single trail up top so returned with a clean drive train.

NoBMoB xmas ride 2016
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Last year's event was great fun that saw hot temps, an elite rider discovering the joys of social riding and a select few conquering the "Long Trail pinch". Hope you can make the 2016 edition which promises more of the same i.e. a relaxed ride from Terrey Hills shops along Perimeter and Long Trails and back again.

Moutain bike group
I am currently looking for a group of people to train duetting the week and weekend on the north shore. Any recommendations or contacts?

NSW records fewer cycling injuries in 2016
Well after the controversial introduction of new cycling laws (plus the minimum passing distance), the results of their effect is up and it appears that fewer people are being injured on bikes.
One tiny issue. It's because they've driven cyclists off the roads. Thank you Cadel Evans for noting that Sydney is the worst city for the treatment of cyclists (and comments on any of these articles certainly show it if its any indication), at least it's reassuring to know it doesn't get much worse.

Bantry Bay maintenance
Big thanks to everyone today who helped kick off the first volunteer maintenance day at Bantry Bay with NPWS!
Today was all about training volunteer team leaders so they are accredited to run maintenance on our NPWS trails.

STOLEN - Specialized Epic Expert 2012
What a day. Help a seriously injured fellow MTB rider who had to be taken by ambulance out of Mt Narra only to then have my bike stolen from my unit balcony (4m up) at Manly whilst drying after a post ride wash. The theft happened between 2pm and 11pm. Very brazen theft considering my balcony faces a major busy road with high pedestrian activity.
The first photo is the original bike the second includes most of the upgrades minus the XTR brakes.
Details as follows
• New XTR brakes with 205/180 Shimano Ice-tech rotors

Glenfield to Wedderburn trail proposal
Thought I'd put this here.

There is a petition opposing this proposal, so there is also the one below supporting it.
Get it out to as many friends as possible!

Seat Fitting
So, my seat on both the MTB and roadie are causing significant numbness in the front carriage. I have written a letter to Santa's Minister and they have agreed to a new seat Question is, where can I go to get an assessment of the type of seat that suits my anatomical needs?
I am located on the Northern Beaches but can travel if need be.
Cheers
