How my helmet saved me...
Got my helmet back... Going to be needing a new one after my stack at the Convict. Ive already ordered a 2012 version, as the 2011 one worked pretty well in my opinion - after all, i am typing this...
The top is dented and all the damage is to the left temple area!
If you can see on the close up, the cracks going through the foam - spread the impact load very well IMO.

Nice vid, but short.
These guys make it look so easy...

Wish I could ride like that!

World 24hr
Is there a way of following this weekends 24hr World Champs?
I'd love to follow it. I'm assuming this WEMBO site is it... although there are no links I can see re: live timing.

RFS / NPWS Hazard Reduction Burns
The NPWS & RFS have a number of Hazard reduction burns planned for this weekend, some starting today.
Following on from the burns during the week and last weekend at Seaforth Oval & The Sydney Academy of Sports on the Wakehurst Parkway they are looking to take advantage of the recent spell of dry weather and run a number of burns. These are scheduled to start tonight at Deep Creek and tomorrow at Wirrenda Creek. These shouldn't affect the usual riding spots, but there may be effects from the smoke.

My convict miracle ride
I'll keep this brief. Kind of.
The Convict 50 was going to be my best ever race result - lots of training in the aim of a sub 2 hour time.

Grays Online
Hi all, anyone seen the auction @ grays onlie re Specialized road & mountain bikes ? Would anyone have more info on it i.e. just the usual stuff, oh no not again, etc. From what little knowledge I have it all looks good to me.

andersons and oaks ride to beat the winter blues!
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Keen to do the The Oaks so we meet at Glenbrook.
The pace will be "medium social" - This will mean several short stops will happen at the creeks, KOMs and the helipad, though besides that I want us to be able to move along at a body warming pace, so it'd be preferable to ride with people with a established degree of fitness.

Hybrid tyres
Hi Guys,
So I'm currenlty commuting on my hardtail (well it's my wife's officially) and the tyres are now shot to bits.
Was thinking of fitting a hybrid slick/knobbly tyre so my missus can ride it on the dirt at weekends while I jump back on my dually.
Any advice appreciated on tyre choice.
Was looking at these.
