Sweet! That’s puts a whole new spin on Black hill now.

It was hot as hell this weekend, but managed to get up early for a quick squirt around the Currawong Falls loop
In Aireys Inlet. Anti-clockwise, the descent is one of my favourite tracks of all time. Super fast, naturally flowing and around the 7 min mark at a decent pace.
If anyone is down along the Surf Coast with a bike handy I can’t recommend it enough. Best to do it early morning to avoid totalling hikers on the way up.

It's Not Easy Being Green
Got a trail head location / best place to park? I'd be interested in having a look at those...

Chucked these Rimpact rim protection on. About $90 AUD delivered, includes tubeless valves which are similar to the Cushcore design.
Valve works fine with Stan's sealant injector for an easier installation.
The shape made it sit nicely on the rim (30mm internal) and mounting the tyres was very easy. Magic Mary SG and DHR2 DD.
On the trail, I didn't notice the extra weight (85g per wheel). Ran similar pressures as I usually do (~20/23). Will try a bit lower next time.
Most of all ... my rim doesn't going 'clang' anymore... it now experiences pain in silence.

Yep - Distillery Creek Picnic Area. Head off down the nature trail first before it turns into the Currawong Falls Track as its best ridden anti-clockwise. There’s no real turnoffs, just follow the trail around and it’ll bring you back to the start. It’s about a 12km loop.

They have them most Wednesday evenings when weather permits. Follow their FB page for details. Might be a challenge though, depending on your work hours.

Sounds good! I'll have to check it out.

Put some maxxis dhf tan walls on today.

Old and hopeless
First ride since I effed up my left knee in an altercation with a tree and an 8' embankment about 10 days ago. It was so good to ride again. A week ago I could barely walk. Anyway, I rode my stumpy with clips as the constant foot placement and being able to pull up, really helped. Ace.

This is why we need a thumbs down button.

Bike is still nice but I also think tan walls need only be used on retro bikes.

Or cruising bikes.

I must be an old grouch, I can remember my first tan walls being Cheng shin tyres then later I had some orange coloured freestyle tyres with like a road tread.
