Social
Hi
I've been looking though the calendar and noted that only the race events were listed. Are there any regular social or training rides?
Ive been a long time mtb rider, who has been spending far too much time on the dark side (roadie) over the past few years. Im keen to find some riding buddies to help me get back on the dirt more regularly.
Thanks in advance!

Kiwarrak State Forest update for 20 May
State Forestry commenced a hazard burn on Wed 18 May. The burn itself is only expected to last a few days, but they recommend avoiding the area for an additional few days while burnt/dead trees and branches fall.

St Ives Trails Under Threat?
Just read this in the North Shore Times - anybody know if this will affect any of the trails in the area?

Bike build advise
Trying to sell my bike at the moment which isn't that old and looking as an option to just buy a frame and use most of the parts that are on it onto the new one and hopefully sell the existing one cheaply.
Just wondering the pitfalls of doing this and is it worth it in the long run as Im looking at saving a few grand and not having to wait to sell my bike which is painful considering it's a steal price and put some great upgrades and is all working great.
Any experiences and some price indications of bike strip downs and rebuilds would be great.

Bottom Bracket
I've managed for the 23rd time to order something online that's 80% the right specifications but not 100% I bought a SRAM X0 1*11 crankset but it's for a BB30 bottom bracket. If I get a BB30 bottom bracket will this fit in the standard bottom bracket hole on the bike or are both the inside and outside widths different. I don't yet have a bottom bracket as I'm building a new bike so wondering whether I have to return the crankset or whether I could get a BB30 for the bike. Thanks in advance. Wow I have almost a shop of bike parts 80% correct now.I wish there was just choice A, B, or C.

Trail Helmet advice
Hi Guys,
Looking for advice on purchasing a new helmet. Most rides around the dam and Bantry Bay trails.
Narrowed the search down to these three brands:
Bell Super 2
Giro Feature
IXS Trail RS
Does anyone have or tried out the mentioned helmets and can recommend?
I have read each have lots of pros but these are their cons:
Bell - heavy
Giro - can be hot
IXS - Peak too long
