Where did you ride today?

Haha well at least its an HD140 at the moment, not an HD160.
Still, I tend to agree...

Yesterday I rode at Thredbo for the first time. So rad! I am getting a bit better at this DH thing. Start work tomorrow so my own bike is in my future.

Today I rode Tuggeranong Pines for the first time, which is steep techy stuff that people ride on big bikes. Since I don't have a big bike right now, I rode it on my XC bike and it was still loads of fun. Rode some shit I woud normally be a bit freaked out by so the DH stuff is def helping.

Last week I did dirt crits on Thursday night at Stromlo. 3 laps of a 800m course totally smoked me. Had pursuiters cough ever since! Hoping to get back there this week. Was pipped on the line for 2nd place so I have a score to settle.

Quick bike path/road ride along the coast tonight. Light breeze, thunder/lighting far inland. Eerie, but cool.

Quick loop around the hills early this morning, Rouse Hill Town Centre - Up Glenhaven Rd - Old Northern Rd to Baulkham Hills - Seven Hills Rd to Old Windsor Rd - then back to Rouse Hill.

^ you're riding in my territory.
What time did you get out?

[Drummerboy]

5:30am from RHTC. I'm in Sevo, grew up in West Penno, it's kinda my territory too :-) I ride from RHTC most Sundays @ 6:30am too. How was the ride from Wisemans?

I'm in Kellyville, but near the fire station, so it would be a ~600m ride to the bottom of Glenhaven road.
Wisemans was a cracking ride apart for my lack of fitness. Its always good to ride with guys who are quicker than you.
If you were on Glenhaven/Old northern rd between 6:05-6:15 I would have driven straight past you today.

Good to hear you guys had a good ride this morning. Agree about riding with guys who are quicker than yourself, the bloke I went with this morning smashes me every time but it is inspiration.

You probably did pass us on Glenhaven, I was on a white & grey Avanti and my mate was on a blue and black Giant TCR (about 400m ahead of me...)

[Lorday]

Hmm... maybe. Did you see a Green Golf (with stickers on the back windows) pass you (probably going a little fast and very wide)?

[Drummerboy]

I think I remember appreciating the wideness of the pass ;-) giving a fellow cyclist plenty of room, cheers!
