How NOT to take care of an injury
I thought I share a story with fellow rides to ensure none of you make the same mistake I've made.
A while ago I had a violent stack with the associated damage to myself such as concussion, torn ligaments, bone crack, bruising, torn calf etc. We all know this can happen when you stack and that is part of the thrill of MTB.
Treating the injuries when we get home is perhaps something not everyone is clued up on, I certianly was now. I think most people know to put ice on the injury, rise it, put a bandage on it and rest. And that is exactly what I did.

What should I spend my $90 Million on?
So after my recent run of terrible luck, I feel as though it's my destiny to be the sole-winner (sorry to everyone else who thinks they have a chance) of the $90, 000, 000 Oz Lotto draw next week. Before I contemplate paying off the mortgage, I will be looking at getting the best mtb that the world has to offer!
If you had unlimited funds, what in your opinion is the best MTB money can buy? What makes your choice so special? What 'good-stuff' would it have on it?
Poll?
Maybe I'll buy you one if you're nice......
Price of an unhealthy nation: $18 billion
More evidence that any sport (and preferably cycling 
) has a massive unseen benefit to the economy:
NEARLY 90,000 Australians will suffer a heart attack or serious chest pain this year, costing the economy about $18 billion in lost productivity and treatment, a report says.
...improved diet and exercise regimes and further investment in treatment and rehabilitation were critical in reducing the potential losses to the economy.
Hello...A Introduction
Hi All
Thought I would post a intro really, I was directed here by a poster on Rotorburn/Farkin as racing isnt really my scence and more looking to get into the socil side of things with a decent group of people.
I arrived from Bristol in November 06 and used to ride all the time at home, but it has taken me some time to get myself sorted and settled out here.
I am going to be purchasing a full sus bike in 2-3 weeks as I am recovering from a back surgery and my hardtail is coming back from the UK in September when I go over there.

Mellow greetings.
Hi guys. Long time lurker, first time poster. Well second time poster. I just posted something and thought it rude to post and not introduce myself.
Soooo... I'm 35, live in the Blue Mountains, ride to work in Penrith, enjoy my job, have a wife who is good value, have 2 little girls, ride off road whenever I can (which isn't enough- see previous point), and I am over searching for and cutting firewood. I know a couple of members on here but I shall not reveal who as they may not want to admit any association!
So there it is. Hi.
