If the central coast bogans moved to Newcastle it would be classed as gentrification
In some areas this would certainly be true.If the central coast bogans moved to Newcastle it would be classed as gentrification
E-bike or natural bike doesn't matter a fig. Legal E-bikes are limited to 25km/h assistance, and only apply power when you're pedalling. Outside those parameters they're no different to any other bike, except the weight is more like an old-school DH bike....I think the give way going down is the only practical way on a 2 way trail (assuming the ebikes arent part of the discussion).
Having someone coming up a track at 25km/hr when someone coming downhill could be too much speed to reliably allow the downhill rider time to give way. Not a common issue at the moment but it could become one. 25km/hr is very quick on many singletrack trails.E-bike or natural bike doesn't matter a fig.

The kind of fuck-knuckles who ride illegal e-bikes are the kind of fuck-knuckles who wouldn't know trail etiquette - or how to spell it - if you hit them with a dictionary.
Like I said the wild west.The new drop at ourimbah onto the fire trail is a recipe for disaster
Anyone got pics? I'm going to need to see this before it gets pulled down.The new drop at ourimbah onto the fire trail is a recipe for disaster
Thanks put that salamander suit on, do a little dance on the gap, I'll jump over, we will make a "sick edit", lots of slow mo for Dozer.just to be clear, I admire those that send
I do agree. Trails that cross like that are a hazard and are poorly considered. I've even felt some sections of the dh and xc trail are simply too close at Ourimbah. Near the bottom as you charge into the last fast section of jumps and the xc trail winds up along side...fark me I've had a few scares thinking someone was chugging towards me.when trail builders cross the down of an enduro track with the up of the xc track I question the foresight, when the crosses are blindish I don't believe I am wearing the safety salamander suit.

No it's not. I regularly jam the back brake on when throwing out a phat whip. The sudden silence of the rear hub puts a nice exclamation point on how phat it is and it also helps to drop the back end down and make the whip a little more stylised.It's a bit hard to brake when airborne!
It is sad seeing the Nissan X-trail commercial pimping the pedestrian camera auto braking safety thing as a feature. You would think that people could actually be aware of where they are walking and possibly look forward instead of being glued to stupid social media on their fondle phones.It's like this numpty wanting to make the streets in Brisbane safer for pedestrians by stifling traffic, instead of encouraging pedestrians to stop being phone-staring, music-blaring fuckwits that cross whenever and wherever they feel like and then blame drivers for hitting them.
