Noosa trails
We're off up Noosa over the long weekend and I'm taking my bike. Has anyone any experience of the trails up there?
From what I can find on the net, there's a few single track trails around Tewantin Forest and a few dirt roads in the area but not sure if there's enough to keep me going for 3 days riding?
I'm even considering taking the road bike instead.
We'll have a car up there so if anyone knows of any other trails within about an hours drive, I'd be keen to hear about them.
Cheers

'13 Aust MTB champs location
I have a week off (only :S) in July between my internship placement and commencement of uni, and am going up to the Cairns area, closer to Atherton.
Was just wondering if anyone around here had done the Australian champs up in the same area; just wondering if someone knew the area where they were held; would be keen to check it out. Still not sure if I'll be hiring a bike and what not, but am curious to see the area, even if it is without a bike!
Cheers!

Nerang Trails SEQ
I had a great ride out at Nerang today. Heaps of locals on the trail giving me some great tips on where to ride. There are a lot of trails in the State Forest that are technically illegal but I think I managed to stay on track today.
Thanks to the 3 blokes with Specializeds in the car park, the Pomie guy with the Red Reign at the top of 3 hills, The three young blokes (one with a hard tail) at the bottom.

Nerang state forest trails
Just thought id give everyone a heads up about these awesome trails.If you were on the gold coast or near by definately have your bike with you!

NPA at it again
The National Parks Association is at again, promoting their special brand of misinformation - this time in Brisbane's Courier Mail.
These guys know no shame, it seems. I've sent a letter off to the Courier Mail in response, but I guess the points for us are:
- the battle will be ongoing with these guys
- expect it, and not be disheartened when they continue to trot out their irrational rubbish

Recent Merida 24 Hour
Great summary clip of the recent Merida 24 hr held in just outside of Brissy earlier this month.
Great little course !

Queensland Rides?
Im heading off next week for a holiday in Queensland. Will be spending 1 week in Hervey Bay and 1 week on the gold coast.
I was thinking about taking mine and my girlfriends bikes.
Does anyone know of any rides to do in these areas?
Is it even worth taking them along?
