Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 27 Oct
Rode at 8am Thurs morn. Overnight rain has made slippery areas slippery, muddy areas muddy etc. Shouldn't take long for it to dry out to great conditions again, decent onshore winds today with no rain should do it. If you love your drivetrain wait a bit.

Saddle Comfort
Hi Guys and Girls.
Just wondering whats the best option for saddle comfort for extended riding, say more than 1.5 hours. I am currently using 2XU compression shorts under normal shorts, but this all gets a bit grabby and uncomfortable when you start getting a bit sweaty, making it hard to get "the right spot" on the saddle. I was considering a pair of the Rebel Sport cycling shorts they have got which has the chamois in them. Does this make things more comfy?
Just wondering what others have found the best option.....

Danny Macaskill & Martyn Ashton
Martyn Ashton was one of the trial riders, I used to admire, back in the day. Good to see him, still around.
Nothing needs to be said about Danny, which has not already been said!

Saw my first trials bike
Saw my first trials bike in Newcastle, yesterday. It was on the back of a 4by, for some home builder. It was an Echo Bike http://www.echobike.com/. Looked nice. Made me want one. Anyone seen anyone do any trials riding in Newcastle? I never have.

Lets talk about Shaft
So, Shaft is looking pretty flogged. Pretty significant braking ruts at the entry of a few of the corners at various places. Needing some pretty substantial maintenance, although i'm not convinced that maintenance is all that it needs.
What say you good glenrockians
