G'day,
I'm Lc from NSW (aka BTA). I started riding overseas a few years ago. Like riding mountain trails and a bit of street occasionally but especially mountain trails.
Great to find a complete MTB forum.
Cheers!

Hi All,
Looking at the other posts, I feel old, 37yr old Melbournian.
Only been back into bikes a few years, now have too many.
Guess the main ones are the Specialized roubaix Roadie and a cheapy Giant Boulder currently undergoing a dose of "upgraditus", with new bars, SLX RD, Deore 9spd shifters, currently on the prowl for a set of Hydros to replace the Shimano cable brakes. (I'm over capitalising the bike, but I really like it)
Living 10 mins from Lysterfield means I try to get out there as often as possible, in between work, wife, kids and new baby.
Been reading the forum for a while, just thought I'd step out of lurk mode

Howdy.. my name's Tom, i'm 28 & from SA. Interested in fast & technical XC.. ride mainly at eagle park and fox creek with various other adventures thrown in, like flinders (awesome) and other local stuff.
Currently building up a dually to upgrade from my hardtail, eventually plan to take some trips interstate and to new zealand with some mates to ride some mountains with chair lifts, a luxury we do not have down here

Hi,
I'm the online identity "Stormrider". I used to love doing 4X and rode an STP everywhere (pre p's).
I recently started riding again, but now as a form of transport to Uni, (I'm doing a summer unit atm).
It's as fast as driving and kept me fit. Well today I lost my trusty old STP (so so so many KM travelled on her) to someone with a battery powered angle grinder.
I walked out the library to find an empty bike stand where I expected to see old faithful locked. I now have to find something new (well second hand) and this is where I turned.
I now have 4 more posts to spam into your community before I can apply to see what's on offer in the trade section.
I am rather pissed about losing my 14th birthday pressie though.
I live in Perth

Hi all. I'm Ben and I ride cross country on a Cannondale Rush 4 Lefty and road on a Giant TCR C2.
Hi
Joined years ago but have only just recently found the time to start posting. Trying to raise 4 kids, work long hours and do post grad uni so I will probably only be on occasionally. Ride to keep fit and now because I want to able to ride with my kids as they get older. In general I have found the riders (including the ones I ride with regularly) to be committed, motivated, educated and supportive. Sundays at Scone always produce sweat and laughs. I'll keep riding and occasionally commenting.

No rules, no boundaries. Your say.
G'day. I am responsible for the development and marketing of cycling (in all its forms) in North East Victoria. We obviously have some great trails already but we want more. We have the ear of local governments, Parks Vic, DSE and Ski Resorts. There are no rules, no boundaries. Tell us what you want so we can get this in front of the decision makers. We want to know what sort of trails, what kind of services etc.. If you know the region tell us where would be a great spot for trails. We are serious about this so have your say.
