    Private Property Pumptopia SE Qld- home pump track build

    Having swapped inner Melbourne living for a tree-change back in the motherland (SE Qld), thought I'd better get my backside into gear & make a start on my home pump track. Thankfully being on 8ha I'm not short of space, but to start out with I'll be working with a 50m x 15m area. Having built 5...

    Sunshine Coast Riders

    So I've not long made the shift back up to the motherland after a 15yr stint in Melbourne & am hoping this might be a good opportunity to kick start what is a largely dead Qld section on RB. Obviously there's a shed-tonne of riders local to the Bris area using the 'Yup boys' thread, but the...

    Muc-Off cleaner

    So a bit of an interesting question for the RB comm. Anyone else bought the twin-pack spray bottles of Muc-Off to discover the contents are literally leaching out of the bottles? Bought the twin packs so that I stop pinching the better-half's spray bottles. Went to pull them out of the...

    Anyone in Melbourne/VIC missing a Scott Genius LT? A friend has just spied one at Preston Cash Converters looking very out of place.

    Fox- is it just the short way of saying 'sub-standard suspension'?

    One of the things that has perplexed me for years is that unlike the other major suspension suppliers/developers in the mtb market, who've done an incredible job of asserting their position & demonstrating their commitment to the sport through repeated development, refinement, innovation &...

    AM Specialized Enduro Elite 650b

    So after much deliberating I took the plunge & bought a 2016 Specialized Enduro Elite. Wanted something that was that was pretty well good to go (or near to) out of the box & with the price they were being run out it was hard to pass them up. Picked her up 3 days before my week-long Buller...

    Pike RCT3 vs RC- give it to me straight.

    So after much deliberation & lengthy consultations with the Minister of Finance, I'm entertaining the idea of a new bike & have all but narrowed it down. Now after weighing up the whole price:durability:reliability:weight equation, there are parts I'd happily upgrade to my own preferences down...

    Yarra Trails Lost & Found

    So I end up finding a swag of rider gear on the Yarra Trails year round & sometimes I'm even able to reunite them with their owners (even an engagement ring). Given the other YT thread is pretty extensive, despite listing found items in it semi-often they are easily lost in the thread given the...
