    Brisbane DH Scene

    Hey guys, I bought Jillian Duncan's book the other day and it seems there are a whole lot more DH tracks around then when I was riding ~8 years ago. I'm considering getting a DH bike now but thought I'd ask on here if there's much of a scene happening? A lot of guys were getting out of it...

    Cheapest place to buy a Mac?

    Hey guys, Last year I made the jump and bought myself a Macbook Pro directly off the Apple website. Pleasant experience all round but at $3,500 it's anything but cheap.

    Tools

    Hey guys, I did a quick search and couldn't find anything recent, surprisingly. Over the last 7 years of moving and renovating, as well as a great deal of loaning and losing, my toolbox is looking rather forlorn compared to its once former glory. I'm looking at starting fresh and am open...

    So my Outlook is becoming progressively slower, which is in direct correlation with the increasing amount of emails I have stored...upwards of 10,000. I can't delete them, but can I back them up?

    Facebook Chat

    Hey guys, A bit of a silly thing, but it's really pissing me off. I use FB chat to keep in touch with a lot of people, but it interferes with the browsers I'm using at the same time. It doesn't matter whether I'm using tabs or separate browsers - it will either automatically switch to the...
