LED Lights
I'm looking seriously at lights, and my dream would be a set of K-Lites. http://www.klite.com.au/ But at $729 for a set, that won't happen too soon.
On the other end of the spectrum is the following (which includes free shipping). A work mate ordered some LED torches through this website & has been really happy with them.

What kind of experiences have you guys had with cheap/expensive lights? If a $39 light lasted through winter, then blew up, I'd still be happy!

UNITY - XC FR DH DJ AM
All
I'm noticing a few comments that are not constructive to the overall riding cause.
Whatever discipline we are all in this together.
When I started advocacy with NP's 4 years ago I rode 80% DH or FR. So did a very large proportion of other contributers. XC was after dark on weekdays to keep fit enough for gravity.
We knew full well we were unlikely to get DH in NP's, which is what many of us rode, but knew that by swinging NPWS as far as we could (XC and AM) everyone would benefit when we consider the doors this policy change opens up on less sensitive land tenures.

75k entry. PM or call me if you want to race. Wingello has great tracks if you haven't been there before.

Garmin mount alternative
Saw this little beauty called the barfly. It seems like a great idea to get the edge off the stem/bar and out in front.
Not so good on a mtb but would be fantastic on the roadie.

A couple of weeks ago, Bryn from the Manly Daily called to find out some more about NoBMoB. Here is an image from the paper of the story.

Relaxed ourimbah
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here). Please do not park in this car park.
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB notice board here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up the hill). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
Called due to work commitments

Mineral Oil
Hi all,
Need to top up my brakes and am hunting down some mineral Oil, have found a few other branded ( Not Shiminao) Mineral oils cheaper . Can you top up with different mineral oils ? Or will I need to do a complete bleed and get out all the old oil which is Shimano ??
Cheers Sam
