    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.

    99% of the gun crime in Australia doesn't come from legally owned and obtained firearms.... Perhaps more effort should go into removing the illegally held / imported guns before we further scrutinise law abiding firearms owners. It may surprise you the lengths that people go to ensure their arms...

    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.

    All legally owned firearms need to be locked up, I don't know if any states require pistols to be locked at the club but I doubt it, seems a central location for easy theft. In NSW all arms must be locked in a proper safe which unless over 250kgs must be dynabolted to the wall and floor. All of...

    Dang, old chap is lucky to still be alive!! Surely it must have been targeted? Have they caught the shooter?

    Get a Honda I found one on the side of the road that someone was putting out for rubbish removal... Change the oil and first pull it goes. Been running great for 4 years now. The old man has a Honda that's been going for as long as I can remember, if I ever need a new one that's where I'd go...

    70yo Shot on Murray to Mountains Rail Trail North East Victoria

    That section of the rail trail is pretty isolated. I just can't imagine anyone shooting someone on the rail trail. It's just a quiet area, and goes through some quiet towns?!?

    70yo Shot on Murray to Mountains Rail Trail North East Victoria

    I just came across this story in the border mail. Can't imagine any wild reason someone would want to shoot an old fella riding his bike.... On a rail trail?!? http://www.bordermail.com.au/story/4476826/cyclist-shot-while-riding-in-everton/?cs=11

    The QUICK question thread.....

    Yes it definitely says they are not serviceable... but I pulled the seal from the bearing, cleaned the grit out and re-packed with grease...good as new. unfortunately, I still have a nasty creek coming from somewhere...at least i've narrowed it down I guess!

    The QUICK question thread.....

    I've just pulled the cranks off my Specialised Camber 29' trying to identify a loud squeak when pedalling under load. I'll re-grease the parts and put back together but it looks like the issue is related to one of the bearings on the Sram PF 30 bottom bracket. Can i simply replace the dodgy...

    When to upgrade

    I just assumed I would be more comfortable lower to the ground, but I've never ridden another size on the hill so who would know I guess... I've got tubeless tires on the bike, am running 30psi and haven't played around with that much (aside from the odd occasion when I've lost pressure, but...

    When to upgrade

    Thanks for the tips, the turning and foot pressure sounds the goods. Leaning forward though, would that not throw your weight over the bars if anything were to go amiss? I thought your weight should be back when decending?

    When to upgrade

    Yep, totally need more experience before I can properly interpret the bike fit and set-up. Gut feel is that the stem is too long, shock pressure NFI, bar width perhaps a bit short... Living in Albury I have a fair host of different styles of riding within an hour, most of my time is spent at...

    When to upgrade

    Sorry... the front tyre is a specialised 'ground control' 2.3, and the rear is a maxis minion DHR 2.3 (probably not ideal but it was on special...) I certainly noticed the change from the original rubber, but still find it a bit hard to 'lean over' if that makes sense, I still feel very...

    When to upgrade

    Hi folks, I am chasing some advice. I'm relatively inexperienced, have been riding perhaps 2-3 time per week, but only started with the mtb in the past 3 months so whilst I've noted the development of my skills... I still suck (used to casually ride a road bike). I'm currently riding a...

    percentage of riders who use Strava

    I've had a poke around the strava website and downloaded the app. Yet to do anything with it as none of my devices are compatible and I'm too lazy to do the manual route. I do like the idea of being able to track your personal times on regular tracks and see where you are improving, something...
