Rolling Festival, We need your help, come party and show some suppor on may15th at Bourke Street Surry Hills

Hey gang , it’s very important that you come to this rolling festival. We need a big turnout to help us celebrate the opening of this section of cycleway. The proposed cycleway network is currently only 5% complete. We have a new roads minister who is sceptical about the introduction of more cycling infrastructure; we need to send him a message. Hopefully See you there. The festival involves a waterloo to woolomoloo loop.

Honestly, Tell everyone, bring your friends and your family.

^^ Newby here ^^

Hiya everyone.

Another forum I thought I would join (only bike forum!).

So anyways, just to say hi, bought a Felt Q520 two days ago, took it for a smash around the street love it cant wait till sunday when i get my first run through ourimbah.

Im guessing its gonna be very different to what i am used to. I rode enduro for 8 years, trying to sell the moto to pay for the sport where i have to use my own power. Silly i know but i guess its a lot more rewarding though.

Well, that is all.

Need Help! Northbridge Pump Track Maintenance day 14th may -

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

If any of you can lend us a hand with repairing the Northbridge Pump track on Sat May 14th it would be greatly appreciated. The rain has really hammered it and we need to fix the surface so it rolls fast again. If we get enough people (and soil) we will be able tweak the track and add more jumps, ...berms and pumps.

Ride Guide needed for Upper north shore (wednesday or thursday)

G'day guys im keen to go test out my new ride and the capabilities of my knee ( 2 months out of a reconstruction). Iv heard all the tracks have changed since last time i was riding so id love it if someone could show me around a few. Because of my knee ill be taking it all reasonably slow and cautious so if theres a beginner out there that knows a few of the tracks that would be great as well.

Im thinking either Wahroonga or Cascades area. Anyone keen? contact me on 0413 403 498.

Cheers
Alex

Hi everyone,
Just thought I'd say G Day as a new member. I think this site is excellent. Lots of information to check out and heaps of experienced riders out there to share ideas. Three years into MTB riding and we're addicted i must say. Hoping to do some riding this Easter so we'll be checking out the calender and perhaps make some new friends.

Site newbie/ Manly Dam help?

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi,

I really like this site, the maps, presentation, helpfulness is off the charts. Always wanted to go for a ride through oxford falls and did so on the weekend. On the numerous times I felt lost one look at the maps had me back on track. It was a great ride and an awesome workout, sliding up those hills took everything I had but was still very enjoyable.

First timer advice for Ourimba

Hi,

I'm planning on heading up to Ourimba from Sydney with a mate on good Friday. Never been before and dont want to make the same mistakes I did with Menai. Too long of a drive to head home frustrated. Looking for some good XC trails and as much single track as possible. Is there good loops to tackle. I can put it up on the calendar if there's a bit of interest.

Spate of bike thefts in Manly?

Is this reported spate of bike thefts anything out of the ordinary, or do you think the only extraordinary thing here is that it actually got reported and ended up in the press?

Either way - take care.

Car hits cyclist - Lastest statistic

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Just add me to the statistics - Car hitting cyclist!! (1st time - hopefully the last)
Last week i was cleaned up by a motorist while riding along McCarrs Ck Rd, on my way to the Duck Holes. Sad
All this in the middle of the day...visibility was clear.
I was hit from behind while travelling around 40km/h and thrown forward on to my back and slid further down the road. You can only image the words that came out of my mouth immediatey after being hit, oh ^@#kkkkkkkkkkkkkk.Jawdropping!
