    Toowoomba XC Riders help us build it (XC track Extension)

    I won't be doing any building (or doing any serious riding) for a while to come as I have slipped a disc in my back and is pinching the nerve root of my right leg... Needless to say I'm out indefinitely. :mad:

    Malfunctions? Show The Breakage!

    We were just cruising down a hill and hit some water bars in a fire road and my mate was complaining that the forks (actually Toras) felt like they were locked out... Next minute they look like that. Ended up using zip ties from the crown around the lower arch bit to hold it together to get back...

    McFrenzy Maintenance - Saturday 21st Febuary

    Maintenance has already been done... Pretty sure Jock and Louis (correct me if I'm wrong) put in a massive effort (like 6 hours) to do the lot themselves. Track is sweet.

    Pike Brake Mount - Machined ridge making brake alignment suck.

    Yeah had the same problem with my 454 Pikes and an 8" adaptor. The LBS just machined a notch out of the adaptor as you intend to do and works perfect.

    Thomson post compatibility with 8mm seat rails

    Have searched but found nothing... Just wondering if anyone runs 8mm seat rails with a Thomson elite post and if they are compatible. I remember reading somewhere (possibly in the leaflet that comes with the post) that it is only compatible with 6-7mm rails. I ask this because I recently...

    Warranty Times

    I have a mate with a set of forks in at the moment awaiting a new rebound cartridge under warranty... Since October :eek::eek: Apparently the part needed to be ordered from Italy and it missed the first shipment and he's still waiting as a result.

    Turtles?

    I could be wrong but I was under the impression that this legislation (in QLD) was only passed in (from memory November 2004), before which, people could (although shouldn't) collect and keep turtles etc. from the wild. People who already had turtles as pets (weren't sold in pet shops back...

    Derailleur choice for XT crankset

    Shimano medium cage derailleurs have a total tooth capacity of 33T whereas the long cage has a capacity of 45T. You get this number by (big ring teeth number - granny ring teeth number) + (biggest cassette gear teeth number - smallest cassette gear teeth number). I'm guessing you will run an...

    Autralia Day ride 5.30pm Gormans Gap

    I'll be there... Haven't been down G.G in a long time so should be interesting. **edit** Do you mean AM or PM??? If it's PM then you might want to have the Careflight chopper briefed and ready for my arrival.

    Why do it?

    I ride because it gets me off the couch (gaining weight and decreasing life expectancy) and out in the open fresh air doing something that gives me both an adrenaline rush, fitness gains and pushes my mental boundaries. Part of the reason riding is so addictive is because no matter how good...

    TLD Moto Shorts Sizing

    I currently own a pair of Fox Strafer Shorts in size 38 (yes I am huge) and am looking at buying a pair of TLD moto shorts. Just wondering if they are similar sizes to the Fox's or should I buy smaller? Does anyone own both brands and if so, how do they compare size wise?

    Boxing Day Ride - 5:30am

    Who's keen for a ride on the morning of the 26th starting at 5:30am? I'm open to suggestions as to route but was thinking something along the lines of Frenzy - Rollercat (x2 laps) and back up. Pace will be casual and should be all done within 2-3 hours.
