So the Duke has a Guardian

Has anyone noticed they are being swooped while riding up Daisy Duke? It's not obvious, like when you're being attacked by a Magpie. This bird is a silent assassin; all you hear is this rush of air as it hurtles past you, disappearing into the trees.

Previously I've only ever caught sight of a brown/grey flash, right after it flew by. Today when it attacked, I ducked, went OTB, but then managed to catch sight of it sitting in a nearby tree, looking proud of what it had just achieved.

Seems to be some sort of small raptor like a kite, hawk, falcon, etc.

Anyone else seen this bird?

Bike Racks

For school i am looking at making a bike rack which fully incloses your bike on the back of the car to minimise the bike from being damaged or stolen. I was wondering if you could please fill out this survey for my research.

It will take no more than 3 mins.

Thanks in advance

Terrey Hills update for 06 Nov

Status: 
Green/Open

Dry, and loose and soft in places. Section from RFS to Jap School has two easily avoidable puddles. Long trail has the two usual puddles but again easily avoidable. It was rather warm today - supposedly thats as good as altitude training for training adaptation. Well, that's what I was telling myself whene trying to spin up the pinches in the heat.

Withdrawn: 26 Inch Rear Wheel

Note that this is "Withdrawn" so is here for archive purposes only.
Price: 
50.00

I am trying to bring an old Enduro back to life and am in need of a replacement rear wheel. The bike is about a dozen years old and has reached its terminal value so I'm not looking for anything fancy.

It needs to be 26 inch, with a standard QR hub, for a 9 speed cassette and preferably 6 bolt disc mounts. Beyond that, as long as it spins, I'm happy. I already have cassettes and rotors so it is just the wheel that I need.

Someone will have one in their garage. Happy to throw in a case of beer or pay a fair price.

Please PM me if you can help.

Thanks, Mark
