I'm *almost* back on the bike...
So after 5-ish weeks off the bike due to the broken wrist (scaphoid) I finally had the cast taken off yesterday!
Back on the stationary gym-bike today, and hoping to be back on the real bike in a few weeks time.
I'll need to, given the 10kg of beer-weight I've put on...
See you on the trails soon,
Don
He's back
Lance is back on the bike

Route to the City
Hi - does anybody ride to the city from the Northern Beaches.
I am fed up with public transport and want to try riding for a while. Does anybody know the best route to the Bridge.
I am not going to ride on military road as its way too dangerous, so I will be taking the back roads. I only need directions from the top of Parrawee road?
Lift to Angry Doctor
Hi all, looking for a lift to The Angry Doctor this weekend for myself and my girlfriend (just one bike, she's volunteering) .We're living in Newtown. My number is 0405 824 786.

MTB friendly councillors
I know, never mention politics.....but, just wondering out loud...
With the local government elections coming up, does anyone know of any mountain bike friendly candidates in their council areas?
I'm in Warringah, but being in a Manly Daily free street get no local news. I'd be interested to direct my vote to a candidate that would represent the needs of the pedal powered community. It wouldn't hurt to have an interested contact on council to direct trail access issues to.

MTB World Cup - what was it like and who won
Guys, I've heard no news about MTB World Cup at Mt Stromlo - can anybody give me an update?
Just saying g'day
Hi all.
Just thought I'd intorduce myself quickly. I'm another Pom and have been over here since the start of the year. I've not had chance to do much riding yet, but that should change soon as my bikes are on their way over at last.
I love riding downhill and singletracks and cant wait to get back into it.
Wingello State Forest
Gday all
Am planning a bit of a ride down at Wingello State forest to get up some kays
Have checked out the google maps and have purchased a map online, but havent ridden down there yet
Just wondering of the best trails to hit??, the more singletrack the better!!!
hoping to do 30+ kays so some loops would be good
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated
