Wheel size expert
Have decided to keep my HIDs so thought I may as well use them.
Looking for those that like it in the Dark ...
The Good News:
- I'm well equipped ... I also have lights
- I can pretty much drive anywhere (although prolly prefer to keep it northern beaches or the occassional Shire jaunt during the working week)
- Can do Friday nights (as I have no life) ... further from home ... but depends
- happy to give a fellow farker from the Innerwest a lift (Lilyfield is home) or if your on the way to the trail head.
- I also have spare lights (halogens) so happy to lend some out (First in, First not riding by the moon).
- Happy to do some DH ... man that would be freaky ... but prolly better to keep it XC or All mountain.
- Depending on whether I'm lending out lights, I've got pretty good burn time (read: I have plenty of batteries for the Halogens) ... so ride length depends on how much sleep we want before going to work the next day.
- For the Innerwest boys that may want to train ... I'm also happy to do some road/bike track work around the Bay Run (prolly better for those that live nearby ... eg, Glebe, Drumoyne(sp), Ashfield, Liechardht(sp), Balmain etc etc, but would prefer to hit dirt.
The Bad News:
- Has to be a late Start ... I won't be able to leave home before 7.30pm most nights so this kinda means pedalling at most trails no earlier then 8.30 - 9pm. (read: kids)
- Prolly sporadic rides at first ... and then as I convince my wife that these rides don't count towards the number of weekends she gets away from the kids in return for me riding, then it should become more regular (maybe twice weekly ... maybe say Tuesday / Thursday)
- I get really freaked when the batteries die and I start getting X-files visions (beware)
- I can't really be spontaneous with these rides coz of the kids, so will always need a little bit of warning (couple days) prior to each ride.
Suggested tracks
Lindfield (quick blatt)
MD (until the batteries die)
RedHills (FR mayhem on 4WD track) works well as a two car shuttle
I've never been to Terry Hills so keen for some exploration
Locus Hts, RNP or similar down south
Lanecove (haven't been in years)
Oatley ... not sure if its legal or worth it.
On a weekend (read Friday or Saturday night)
Anywhere up the Blue Mountains
PACE: I'm not the fitess bugger, and would prefer technical trails ... but happy to spin ... so I can keep up with the Whippets on the weekend. Don't expect much and we should be right.
Let me know if your interested ... PM or post
