    CORC Stromlo shuttle day - Saturday 6 July

    We're able to run through the park this time so transit times will be less, which will reduce any waiting times as well if the bus is full - aiming for 18 trips up the hill instead of the 12 last time. And if the bus actually leaves at 9am instead of 9:30 cause there's people ready to go, then...

    Pork Barrel at Mt Stromlo

    Yep, the course is the red lap, so up the climb and down Skyline and Luge into Old Duffy's Descent, around the 4X track, over the bridge into transition and around again.

    Pork Barrel at Mt Stromlo

    I did think about putting it into the 3hr, except I'm lazy and I've been asked not to (ever so nicely too)

    Why single speed for XC and trail riding - what am I missing?

    I drive an automatic... This sums it up for me. I like just getting on the bike and pedalling and not having to worry about anything else. Plus it's always more fun passing a guy going up a hill on the SS, sweeter when wearing a skirt!

    What bike does your partner ride?

    Buying a bike for a female is exactly the same as buying a bike for a male. Try out as many bikes as you can and find the one that fits. Amongst my female friends, we have a selection of female specific and small framed male bikes. We ride hardtail, dual suspension, 29er, singlespeed...

    What's All The Abbreviations Mean?

    I've got a slightly different take on the abbreviations: XC - Cross Country lap race, generally of 6 - 7km per lap, with multiple laps depending on grade (A grade 5, B grade 4, etc for clubs. Or Elites, Under 23's, Under 19's, etc for state/national/world events) This is also broken into XCO...

    Hardtail for the Mrs - any ideas?

    Just to confuse the issue further: Why do you want her to go riding and why does she want to go riding? Is this just an attempt for her to work out why you leave her at home all the time, or is this something that she really wants to do for herself? The type of bike she ends up with could...

    Two Days In Canberra - Advice Please

    He he, I'm allowed to set the course for this race. Can't decide if I'll make it really small circles or something totally suited to the singlespeeds! And I know where my preference is for the course to be - fairy lights at Majura bring back so many memories. @ Johnny, if you mean Black...

    2012 World 24 Hour Mountain Bike Championships - Intense Battle

    I did read the press release, which is why I know its about Jason as the current champ, Tinker as a previous champ, Kelly who hasn't won it previously, Josh who hasn't won it previously, Cory who hasn't won it previously, and Leighton from a home town perspective. All males, not all of whom are...

    2012 World 24 Hour Mountain Bike Championships - Intense Battle

    Global Heroes, but... Just once it would be great to see a media release that gave equal coverage to both sexes. Last time I checked, we rode for 24 hours and on the same track, so it's not like we get it any easier, or we ride on a modified course, for less time and the bumps are smoothed out...
