Night Riding Advice
A few questions about night riding:
1. Do many people ride Manly Dam at night?
2. If I did a couple of laps of Manly Dam would I see anyone out? What are the chances?
3. Unfortunately it looks like I will have to ride solo as no one else is keen, what precautions should i take?
4. I know Manly Dam really but will I find it hard going at night?
5. Any other advice/tips?
Thanks alot.
Hi - New Forum Member
Hi Everyone,
New to this forum, and to Australia in general. I'm a Kiwi, but we moved from Vancouver, Canada to Sydney in April last year (sometimes I still ponder why we left all that glorious singletrack and power snow behind....)!
Say G'day to your local shooter... :-(
This development gives me the creeps... "16,000 recreational amateur hunters are registered with the Game Council of NSW"
It's always interesting to meet some of those folks ...from the other side of the barrel....

Medial / trauma travel insurance
Hey guys
Looking for some advice on medical / travel insurance for an upcoming multi stage race I have in South Africa. Any suggestions?
Cheers
Making light of another's misfortune!!
Something from the lighter side of MTB: One of our cycling crew recently celebrated the big 50. We all met on Thursday evening, did an awesome early evening ride and then crashed the local Pizza Parlour in Terrey Hills. We sat outside the PP enjoyed sumptuous pizza (enough for an army and sssoooo tasty - and no I'm not a shareholder!)
Our 50 year old friend was telling us how he recently was riding up Heath Track at Cascades and how he did a new PB....largely due to the fact that a wasp stung him on his butt. Of course we all CRACKED up and thought it was quite hilarious....
Your best bike for Sydney
Hi guys. Two questions.
1) If you were going to ride one bike in the northern beaches/north shore area that is currently available, what would it be?
2) What do you currently ride, and what is your favourite place to ride it?
I'm in the market for a new mountain bike at the moment after being on road for too long. I'd like to see what people ride, and why they ride it, because its much more interesting than asking what you think I should ride 
Hello
Just joined. Live in Turramurra, have dual suspension Trek, ride Sunday AM, about 20-30 Km, sometimes during week. Mostly the Lane Cove tracks, Manly Dam and Oxford Falls.
Most interested in other tracks we could ride, no more than I hours drive. Have one beginner in group, but he completed the Manly Dam circuit with only minor injuries and improves weekly.
Who has right of way?
Hi there,
So I was in my car coming up to a round about. There is a bike lane on the left hand side that ends at the round about and continues on the other sided. I pass a cyclist leading up to the round about. I need to turn left so I put the indicators on. Sensing that the cyclist was not going to slow, I come to a complete stop. Cyclist rides through the round about without a care in the world. So the question is who has right of way in this situation?
