Cheers Mick, I have edited the list.
If RipnShred is keen a place is free for you.STM
I did mine last week and when I first removed the steerer it looked like the lower race was shagged. I gave it a good go with some brake cleaner and then smothered it in blue grease. After a few revolutions it started to free up and is now super smooth. The top race was fine and just needed a re grease.

Check out this section I worked into my loop today :woohoo:
Remeber to click the top left hand corner and view it in Youtube rather that hitting the play button and watching it in OBT. It streams quicker and the resoultion is better.

I went out for a bushwalk this afternoon and found the entry to that trail I mentioned to you today. Next loop we will add that one in. You will love it.
Speak soonSTM
Hey Shell
Glad you had fun and got home without incident
Always room for one more in this part of the world so I will PM you when we are planning more rides. You certainly hold your own out there and it was great to see you pull up grinning at the end of some of the sections. Even more impressive the way you throw that 250 around when it is not behaving :laugh:
When someone asks, “did you get your bike up that?”, you can reply YES. It only gets tricky if they ask if you were still on it. :laugh:
Just to clear anyone up on this incident, Shell lines up a steep clay bank out of a creek and pins it but realised half way up she is not going to make it. This is the point the soft ones throttle off and fall to the ground but not Shell. She wrung that throttle as hard as she could and hit the eject button at the same time. The bike flew over the lip as she slid back down into the dark ravine. Her bike sat patiently on it’s side still running whilst she dragged herself up the face, remounted and was gone.
Later I pulled up to help her over one tricky log and she already had one hand on the bars, one on the rear grab hold and just muscled that little Honda over.
A real ambassador for the dirty ladies out there :woohoo:
Good onya Shell!!
As ever it was great to catch up with TDriver for a chat and a ride and I look forward to plenty of Summer rain and lots of great loops to come.STM

Hey Mike.
Yes to all the above. I have the best of the old and the best of the new built into two loops.
If I have an expression of interest for Friday I will do a short arvo loop then it is off to all you can eat Chinese :woohoo:STM
Get the IQ package from Fox mate. For $17 bicks a month you will never miss anything again. You can even pause live TV to get a beer and fast forward the ads when you get back.
GOLD!!!

Well found twobanger. I know what I am doing tonight :woohoo:
STM
That theme song brings back fond memories and only now do I realise why my old man never missed it :laugh:
STM
As the resort is starting to fill up can I get the riders not confirmed on the list above to let me know ASAP if you are coming so that the reserve guys still have a chance.
Cheers
STMGive Darlington Beach a call Mick. Your attendance on this one is compulsory!!!

I went out for a ride today and thought I would dig around the Souhtern end of my forest to see if I could find anything new. What I found left me speechless. A narky, dark, tight and slippery bit of singletrack that sits on the edge of a very steep slope. I got about a km in when I was forced to turn around. It is not the sort of place you want to explore on your own :unsure: I logged it on my GPS and checked it on Google Earth but I will wait till Nickj comes down again to work out where it ends. Depending on where that is it could be added to my loop and if so you will be blown away.
Once I solve this little mystery both the Southern and Northen loops will be set for the ride. Both have additions if the group is moving well and bail out points if there are dramas.Bring it on!!
