Securing A bicycle...
Good evening everyone. I thought this would be a good topic to ask about due to all the unfortunate losses lately. Im curios as to see what methods people use to secure there pride and joy. I.e. locks, chains, wall brackets with dynabolts etc.. Just looking to find a method that will stop my bike from rolling away.
Thanks everyone...
Jono.

Rocky fun fun fun...
What an awesome event. I rode this event last year and had an absolute ball so continued the fun again hitting up the single lap option. I wasn't disappointed...
The decision to change the course route during the week proved immensely successful. The trails on offer were amazing I loved the track last year but I reckon this route took it up another notch or two. No really steep climbs but no real opportunity to step off the gas either. The technical climbs were unreal and the downhill sections were both a challenge and a buzz.

Hats off to anyone under 8 minutes
After riding up to the top & back down. Still not sure I can ride it much faster though!

First Rock Wallaby
What a great race, at a great course, attended by great people.
I've done a few chocfoot enduro's and have never been disappointed with their set up and this was no exception. The course was a really good mix of fire trail, flowing sniggle and technical climbs/descents.

OpenMTBmap
Does anybody use OpenMTBmap?
I will be curious to see how the maps looks like for Australia.
There are no previews / screenshots for the area, and the only way to see is to pay… heu sorry donate.
Let me know also if you're using it on your Garmi; will be curious too if it does work well on it.

Punishing little petrogale...
Hadn't been to Appin since one of the Bright Orange 8 hr events a few years ago, so thought I'd give this one a go.
