    Junior Skate Park design ideas needed

    I probably should be clearer about the question. I'm not the designer, but I will be putting a brief to the contractor for what we want. Not so much about design as what to include, or what to ask for. We've got money and a site, I'm looking for suggestions on how to spend it.

    blackheath-medlow-katoomba Thursday, sure why not. I'll probably be SSing, but it would be fine on a bigger bike...some silliness available. Can tailor the route a little. One small warning...may be overgrown sections. Scratches possible.

    um..that article is pretty speculative. It's hard to have an opinion when we don't know what is being proposed.

    Riding 6' coxes Sorry about the title... yeah, I mean the bottom of the 6' track from megalong to the river and back. 12k's of sweet ST all up. You could also go to explorer's tree up to Katoomba if you want, but it's not legal so don't tell us about it! I might even join you on Sunday...

    Camelback/Hydration packs...OUT OF FASHION??

    For shorter rides, say sub 2 hours, I'm liking 2 bidon bottles and a seat bag for spares. Nice not having a sweaty backpack. But I'll have to look into the polystyrene cups with shocks and long straws. Especially if it's fasionable as you say...

    The Sketchup thread...

    Hey tomdh A thought on the frame design; The shock post things looks cool, but since they are so thin, there wouldn't be much lateral bracing. In real life you could imagine the top tube and bottom tube getting out of alignment when under cornering pressure, for example. I could be wrong...
