    Whats the funniest thing you have found on a trail?

    A mate and myself pulled up on our local trail to have a breather and a chat, as we went to pedal off about a minute later we notice a juvinile brown snake sun baking right between us. A bit scary for a second.

    Since the club have left Appin there has been two loads of rubbish dumped down the end of Burke st; both have had moto tyres in the piles, the padlock on the gate has been busted, I see half the amount of wallabies in the bush as the noise of the motos must drive them mental. Before a full day...

    "Private Property" Please!! Do they pay for the fire trails to be grated every few years? Do they pay for the rubbish removal? I'm sure they have some say and authority over the land and its future preservation but to say its private property and anyone in there could be considered as...

    What seat clamp chain guide works for anthems?

    I have used a widget 30T 1x10 with good results, or a 32T 1x10 with a bash guard on both sides of the chainring. I'v never run an actual seat clamp guide though. I dropped the chain on the 32T bash guard combo a couple of times but never with the Widget chainring and I ride very rocky rough...

    Well, if they actually lived in Appin they would know that the MTB'er are one of the best things to enter that bush. It has gone from an ABSOLUTE dump, with people only going in there to smoke pot, dump rubbish or tear up the fire trails to the point the Fire trucks struggle to get around, into...

    Nooo way. I would'nt try kill one for $million$. Thats how fools get bitten. It was laying right across the trail, so as we come flying down the Lost trails fast section my mate rode over the top of it, then it was flipping around like crazy when I went past it. I'd be suprised if it survived.

    If you're going out doing trail maintenance let me know, I'll be in for sure. Also for what it's worth we have bumped into a couple of brown snakes, so look out. We flatened one of them. That new section near appin road you cut in is becoming such a great section now that its speeding up.
