Mavic spokes?
I've broke a rear spoke on a Mavic Crossmax ST wheel and am finding it acpain to find a replacement.
Can anyone suggest a shop they know in Sydney(North) that deals with Mavic?
Or an even longer shot, has anyone got a spare spoke, maybe from a damaged/old/worn out Crossmax ST?
Thanks in advance,
Gazza

Manly Dam Maggie/Butcherbird
Hi All,
Am planning to head out to the Dam this evening, and was wondering if the Bugger on King St is still active at the moment?
Haven't ridden Manly in a while, but last time I was out there I saw two people ride past me at the school with bleeding faces!
Cheers!
Ride more
Hi,
I've been lurking here for a while, but haven't yet got involved.
Having done a couple of 100kers this year I'm well and truly hooked on mtbing again. Not just races, but long rides at the mountains, wisemans, few laps a the dam etc
Anyway, I want to ride more, get quicker, train better and enjoy my riding. The problem is that this all takes a lot of time. I've been considering a few options.
Road riding
Indoor training
Quit work and hope it will all be OK with no money
Just go riding all weekend and risk divorce
Night/evening rides
Morning rides
Majura Pines Status

Travel Advice
Hi everyone,
I am two weeks away from heading over to Rotorua for a week of cycling!
We are curious if anyone has any advice; we are thinking that we should we deflate/empty anything with air in it? Shocks, seat post, tyres, etc.
Would the tyres be ok if we left them seated but with only 15psi or such, to keep them in place and with the stans inside?
Also, CO2 canisters. My guess is not to take any?
Your opinions, facts, etc would be appreciated.

Calling all commuters | Bridge to Redfern route options
So this morning I headed for Redfern via the Harbour Bridge, having never done this before I decided to take the most direct route along George St. I managed to make it through only 1 set of lights without stopping. Every other set of lights of (which there was more than I think I've ever encountered on a single ride before) caught me out. Is there a better way with fewer lights?
Thanks
Highland fling ride alternatives
Hi all,
I will be accompanying a friend who in turn is accompanying a friend who is racing at the Fling. I was hoping to be able to ride while we wait for the racing friend to finish, but looking at the course map and not being to familiar with the area I'm not sure if this is possible.
Does anyone know if this is practical? My other option was driving back towards Welby and spending the morning riding the trails there.
Suggestions to alternative riding in the area is much appreciated.
Number (1)13 - upside down??
So, drew number 113 for my next race. What's the convention for mtb races?
I know roadies turn no 13 around, think I've seen a 113 upside down too?
Wouldn't want to get disqualified by some overzealous official...
Thanks
