    Hi there,

    I'm new to here, been riding mountain bikes since moving to Brisbane in 2009. I like to ride on the weekends at bunya and sometimes gap creek with some mates. Love to ride with my wife and kids, sometimes with the dogs too.

    I'm not too flash on the bike, still learning and enjoying it.

    Say hi if you see a bit of a plonker on a white yeti poking around the bush at bunya.

    See you.

    Welcome Mario. My fiance is from Brissy, never got any mountain biking in while I was visiting her, but looked like there is some good trails around. Pitty its so damn humid! Most people on here are Sydney-ites, so would be cool to see some pics of your local trails.
    That weird guy who plays with beach cruisers...

    Default I'm a former sydney-ite...

    and my folks and outlaws still live there. i'm back every now and then (like this month for a mates wedding)

    i rode at manly dam when i came back around christmas time for a visit. lots of sand and rocks. some of it was pretty challenging.

    brisbane has lots of riding areas close to town that are quality. not the least of which is bunyaville (where i live). i will put some pics up, and have a couple of crappy videos on youtube. i have recently bought a chest mount and also bar mount for my go-pro so look forward to having some less boring footage.

    here is one of my vids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJUME...7&feature=plcp

    not very thrilling, but you will see some of bunya.
