I'll get to the serious stuff soon as promised. But I can't resist sharing this.

The "proposal" one just cracks me up, particularly as she said yes (could you imagine if she didn't, then everyone would see that it had failed:

Fox CTD issues

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Had a recurring issue with my Fox CTD forks on my 2014 Trance 2 and was interested to know if anyone has experienced the same problems.

From what I gather and I'm pretty sure this was the case when the bike was new but the CTD position should sit at about 5, 3 and 1 o'clock respectively for the climb trail and descend position (as you look down on the fork from the seating position).

Flying to NZ with bikes

Ladies and gentlemen
I am going to NZ in April for 2 weeks with my girl and would like to take our 29er bikes with us, (mine is an XL of course!!!)
I know a few of you have flown to NZ with your bikes, so who is the best to fly with?
Air NZ has total 158cm linear limit before excess charges apply, which seems rather small, qantas bike box seems huge but the airfares are plenty more, Virgin don't have dimensions on their website that I can find, and are pretty cheap.
Any thoughts and comments would be great

Woah Mamma

I know this is a MTB forum but check this miraculous escape. One thing is the rider didn't get killed but the guy behind must have reflexes of a cat to avoid disaster. Happened near Byron Bay - Action starts 34 secs in for those in a hurry.

Friday 9th Jan All day ride

On Friday the 9th I have an all day pass to go riding.

Does anyone have any suggests for a 75km+ loop within about an hour and a half drive from the city? Also, if anyone wants to join me, I'd be more than happy of the company.

Underground bike trails

NO, we're not talking about "ünofficial" trails.

We're talking about trails built in such a way that you'll never have to worry about the weather again. Eye-wink

Bright

hi all,
heading to Bright for holidays soon. Apparently the riding is amazing and there's about 50ks worth of single track around town.
Does anyone know where to find a trail map? I've had a look around the web and the usual sites but couldn't find anything.
Thanks
