Cannondale hardtail after installing new fork internals
Much improved stance now that the fork has the full 110mm travel it was supposed to have.
I've also lifted the seatpost about 20mm after advice from fankles that I'd had it too low. Much better power output, and more comfortable for the knees, I just need to work on the lower back stability.... and on how to stop nutting myself

GPS watch for running
I'm looking at one of these for running and riding.

Any feedback very much welcomed

Withdrawn: 661 Evo knee/elbow + veggie pads (size large)
Sadly it seems my days of technical riding are over so am clearing out collection of pads.
All these are size large.
661 Evo pads are the type with the hi-tech '3do' foam that is flexible when not under load, but goes rock hard on impact. Pretty cool stuff. The Veggie guards are more standard multi-layer neoprene. Do your own research of course and figure out if these are the right protection for your style of riding.
The particular items pictured are:

Riding in the Hunter Valley
Going up the Hunter for a few days tomorrow and will probably take road and Mtb's.
Apart from the obvious Trails at Singleton, does anyone know of any nice loops to do around the area? Hoping for a nice road ride on not too busy roads if there is such a thing?
Thanks,

DH Newbie
Hey guys
Been riding xc for a couple of years now and just recently my mates encouraged me to go out and get a DH bike, so the purchase was made ('Goose Boot'r Foreman) plus all the riding the kit and now the guys who i was supposed are ride with are all out with injuries! So i was wondering if anyone has some time over the Christmas break to show round some local DH trails and maybe give a little bit of tuition so i can try and avoid ending up like my mates! (sorry squid)
Cheers, Nick

29er handlebars
Hi Everyone I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and that stockings were bulging?
I'm in the process of building a 29er and wanted to ask people's opinions on having wide bars as opposed to conventional widths...I've got a set of 72 cm wide protharsis carbon bars, my current 26er has a width of 68cm.
How many people have bar-ends and would it be an option to add bar-ends onto the carbon bars to "take up some space"?
thanks

Rubbish left at the end of Long Trail
This is what I found when I got to the end of Long today. Shame on those who do this sort of thing and take no responsibility.
