Below is a preview, click to read the full post

First all if you havent got this months issue (its like a special issue) of Australian Mountain Bike (no I dont work for them) you should because the whole issue has like 48, 2page spreads on all the best trails in Australia. Get it!

Just thought I'd wack some pics and thoughts up about the DH track (and a little of the XC) track at Jubilee Park in Toowoomba.

But first some pics:

The old man jumping!

Wingello burning?

I heard on the radio last night as I was driving that there were fires in Wingello? Wonder if the nice Fling course we rode is affected.
Of course hopefully no property down there is affected too.

RE:Barrington Tops - camp and ride weekend

Could anyone outline their experiences in riding in Barrington Tops ie where to camp/stay, what to ride if you have kids etc.

I am keen to go to Barrington Tops for the first time and I would love to ride around. I have seen the tracks on Google but wanted to get an inside view of how to do Barrington by Mountain Bike.

thx....

Missing the BBQ ;-( Crossing the Mekong in Laos

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

G'day Nobmob guys and gals!

Sorry for missing the BBQ - Benji and I will be there in spirit Eye-wink

Yesterday we did some more MTB'ing on our Vietnam -> Laos -> Cambodia family trip.

We stayed in the ancient Royal Capital of Laos (Luang Prabang) and crossed the mighty Mekong with a longtail boat...bikes and all...

Some more (dusty & hilly) cycling in the hinterland brought us to some remote hilltribe villages and challenging river crossings.

We would have been terribly lost if not for our local guide Chao which showed us the way.

Seasons greetings from Northern Vietnam!

We managed to fit in some MTB'ing while having some time off from a local Hanoi-based project ...and went to a rare and beautiful spot in Northern Vietnam....Mai Chau.

We drove for 3 hrs into the limestone country west of Hanoi and rented some local (Merida) hard tails to check out the local amazing scenery and village life....

What to do in Melbourne?

I will be heading down to Melbourne for a week before coming back via Thredbo this Christmas.

Where will it be worth checking out? At the moment I will definitely be taking the VP Free but if there is good XC then I may take the Trance down too.

Any ideas will be much appreciated Smiling

I have just been to Christchurch, NZ, and there are amazing rides on the Port Hills right close to the city. Easy access, great scenery, mtb parks with dh shuttle bus service if you want.

Have a look:

And a wonderful singlespeed shop if that's your bag - www.grindbikes.co.nz (great bikes but get your coffee at the Lyttelton Coffee Company). Paste the links.

Mt Keira DH

Had a awsome day down at the gong today. Hit up the DH tracks at Mt Keira.
First time there and I was very Impressed, about 5 different trails with something for all.

If your looking for a top day out out of Sydney get down there but get in early as its get a lot of riders later in the day.

Cant wait to go back!
