    Kindle 6" or 9.7"

    Hey guys, I'm looking to get a Kindle, I'm undecided ont he 6" or 9.7". I know a few of you have purchased them on here, which one did you get and why?? Not overly fussed on price, so it's really just on ease of use. Is it more practical to go with the smaller one as it's easier to carry...

    25 basis point move up on interest rates

    Manly Dam

    Populate or Perish

    I used to find the religous topics on here quite interesting and insightful, but for a fair while now they have just become condecending diatribes of people trying to force their opinion on others. I hope this doesn't go the same way. Back on topic I think it is a disgrace that a person of...

    A thought for a new seat post

    The other day I was riding Manly Dam, and as most Sydneysiders know it is a reasonably various terrain type track (if that makes sense). You can have long fire trails and you can have semi technical areas too. I was thinking to myself on the way home it would be a lot better if I could adjust...
