Here’s what I’ve figured out about flying with a downhill bike, from recent experience flying to National Series races. There have been some good articles in magazines over the past year or so about flying with bikes generally, and I won’t repeat a lot of what is in those articles. This thread is...
Thredbo? Mt Buller? Tassy needs one too! Tolosa's Downhill Run was designed and built by Simon French and many volunteers. Simon is currently building another bike park around Hobart. The track is pretty steep, and apart from the last section of big, pedally jumps, the whole track can be...

Post up champs bikes as you find them. Here's a ripper to get us started:
Found this, not really a fan, i like the front triangle but the rear end just does not do it for me i hate square tubing i think it looks cheap, and surely that shock is going to get destroyed by mud/dirt/stones ? Also why no fox shock on there ? ...

Ok people the You Yangs MTB Incorporation is holding its first club race on Track 13 on the 18th and 19th of September. This will be a timed race from top to bottom. The reason we chose this track is it will give people who don't usually race an opportunity to have a go and step up with a track...
No fancy flyer just yet, but put it in your diary... Albury Wodonga Mountainbikers will be running their next DH race on Nail Can Hill (right in the heart of Albury) on October 24th. It'll follow pretty-much the same format as our other previous DH races... 4 hours of practice then two race runs...

Hi all Oxxy riders! Some of the builders at Oxxy want to fix/enhance the lander for the 2 jumps after the ladder step down from Abbo rock. Since this is a critical part of the tracks there (being a bit of a bottleneck where all tracks meet) the builders were hoping to get some financial input...

I'm looking at getting a neck brace and was wondering firstly, where can you try them in Melbourne that includes Leatt and Alpine Star and then which you prefer out of the two listed brands. Also i have a THE vegas helmet so it needs to fit that okay.
