    Alkaline Diet

    Anyone know anything about this? It seems to make sense but it also looks a bit like a bit too obvious, if it was authentic, surely everyone would have been onto it years ago?

    WSMTB Blue Gum on Sunday

    I have been looking forward to getting back to Blue Gum this year for the WSMTB round. I have mixed feelings now because a) I havent ridden/trained enough and b) the thought of "Palletive Care" in the wet does my head in. What effect is this rain going to have for Sunday?

    Awaba

    I rode Awaba for the first time yesterday and I rode the whole first loop with a grin on my face. What a great trail.

    Wsmtb club championships yellowmundee

    This has been my first year mucking around racing in the WSMTB XC Series at Yellomundee. I notice that the next race is the club championships and not a round of the series. Is this still a race for all comers (DL on the day) or is it just for club members who have series points?

    I took my family out there on the weekend to try to introduce my wife to the sport. My previous total experience of Yellowmundee was only of the novice track. I took a lap of the entire trail and all I could say was WOW! Had a great time and it was cool finding all the new experiences, the...

    I was wondering if anyone has the results or can point me to the results of this event? Reason I am asking so late after the event is that I have only just recently become involved in MTB and I love it. I ride/race XC like a beginner but really enjoy watching the UCI 4X & DH as well. The...
