I found this pretty cool..

If I didn't actually enjoy the thrill of pushing myself hard whilst commuting to work, this would actually be pretty good.

I reckon it'd be perfect for those who don't have the luxuries of showers at work.. and can get into work on a bike sweat free?

I like the regenerative braking system. Thats clever.

huh, cheaper than all our bikes too!

I'd never use it, but hey, if it gets more people on bikes, then all the better.

hi all

im new to this group, i have a scott voltage yzo i was looking at the pictures of people riding and they have rear suspension and the whole set up going, and i was wondering if many people ride with hard tail bikes. im still learning but i love riding, every trail i see or hear about i end up doing it. im based in the hornsby area so i have done most the trails around there

im fit but im afaid if i go on one of the meets i will slow the other riders down and what is the general age of the groups, im only 16

thanks all

scott

P.S yes i know i have the same name as my bike.

This is interesting:

Based on a series of test rides, this map shows the distance a healthy person can cycle within half an hour, to or from Sydney's city centre. If you live in the "no excuse zone" and work in the CBD, try cycling to work a few days a week and enjoy the benefits.

Think I might have to print this out and stick it up in our office

I will be spending a week over Christmas in Narooma, not far from the Mogo forrests. Does anyone know of an MTB club that rides in the area that I can contact to hook up for a ride. Also, will any Nobmobbers be down that way over the week?
