for all of you South of the River folk in need of a nice bike shop you should go to Bike Force Myaree on North Lake Rd. and not just because i work ther on Saturdays! Graham the boss is cool and a great mechanic and sensitive to all your biking needs.

Bonnet,

were you the guy with the broken fork on the raceline?

Yeah come on down, not much in the shop at the moment but you can always order stuff if required. We have all the catalogues from the major distributors.

YEH that was me (i cant believe you rememer???), i broke three of the 2003 manitou six comp 80mm travel forks, all in the same place and after less than harsh riding, then to top it off, my mate broke his forks excatly the same as me, 3 TIMES. so between us we broke six manitous in about 2 monthsriding (it took about a month to get the fork fixed in between breaks).

i might see abuot gettin some shimano or (sram) mechs so i have a spare. if i can afford it maybe a stronger rim....ohhh so much to buy, so little $$$$ to spend.

Just found this forum, I'm in WA (Scarborough). Just picked up a 2nd hand hardtail (Norco Manik) and tryin to find some good DH runs. I'm prolly what you call a veteran (ie old dude) who used to race BMX some years ago. But damn its good to ride a bike again, the manik is a bit of a brick to jump but I feel like a kid again rippin down a run at the Goatfarm. Oh and that 20ft drop is wicked as.

Might see some of you guys out, I'll be checking out a few other well known spots over the coming weeks Mundaring, Welli Mills etc

I'm getting into Trials, I've got a Bionic B1, & just working on some of the basics in my back garden for the moment. Try www.observedtrials.net, there's a couple of Perth riders on there. I think they ride at Southlands every now & then.

PS. I'd brush up on spelling & grammar or you won't last too long on Farkin. The mods are a bit touchy about it around here.

I'm always up to meet up with other fogeys, I'm in Mt Nasura, I don't get to ride very often but like Canning Mills Rd. It's close & I don't crash as much there as I do at Mundaring.
