MTB Lake Annecy (France)
Heading over to France later this year with some friends and will have a week in Lake Annecy at the foot of the French Alps.
Has anyone done any mtb riding there that they can recommend?
Need bike hire and would prefer downwards XC - catch a chairlift up and wind generally downwards, without wanting to do the whole full face helmet / pyjama suit / big air thing.
Free bicycles are being scattered around Australia this week
Need a new bike ? Well, Virgin Mobile are wanting to give you one. The catch ? You've got to find it !

PS. I don't have anything to do with Virgin, I work for a Toll Blender of Industrial greases and Lubes
Man Bag?
I think Cadel just needs is a carry handle and she could just cart him around...

Looking for bike to rent/borrow for the day
Hi everyone, a bizarre request here. I have a mate from England visiting me for a couple of weeks, and we were thinking of going for a ride in the Blue Mountains. The unfortunate thing is that he needs a bike for the day. We will probably do the oaks or maybe Narrow Neck or something. I was wondering if anyone has a spare bike lying about that they might like to rent out for the day and make a bit of cashola. Happy to leave a drivers licence/passport or money deposit as security.
Cheers

New Bike, perfectly suited for the conditions.
With the current run of appalling weather, sodden tracks and cabin fever getting too much I have been wondering what I can do to get out there and escape from it.
This looked like a great way of being able to ride regardless of how damp the trails may get:
It is convertible from a "Dry" MTB to a "Wet" MTB with minimal effort, not quite sure what the NPWS rangers would make of it on the Perimiter Trail?
New video camera
Looks like somebody on this site has got a new video camera!
Any guesses who?!? 
I'm sure those with an eagle eye will spot it...

Need 30wt Oil - Where do I get it?
Hi
May seem a daft question but where would I get 30wt oil - motor suppliers, bike shop etc? Need some for a dropper seat post I'm servicing but never had to buy any before.
Cheers.
Help with OH&S - Cycle in the Office
Hello all, I work in an office in Sydney CBD. I cycle my pride and joy in every day and park her in my office (behind my desk). My office is on the 10th floor which is served by 6 lifts, which I use to get the bike up there.
A colleague of mine who is a fellow cyclist was lambasted by the building manager stating taking a cycle into a lift was an OHS issue. It seems if a cycle is in a lift and there is a fire, it's dangerous or something. NB the lifts are wide enough that people can get out whilst the cycle is in there.
Sydney bike paths/cycle ways
Does anyone know of a website that shows all the bike paths and cycleways around the Sydney Basin? Each Council area seems to have their own but was hoping there is a collective view somewhere
