Our ride around UNSW today.
A mate from college and I went for a ride around the uni today. Good fun. The first clips are my and the last two are the mate on an giant STP 0.

I'm not sure if the new full face and chest protection are going to keep me safe or give me stupid confidence!
8hrs of Dh + WWS 1
Ok the 8hr festival weekend
Saturday will see the very first 8hrs of DH. 3 short, gentle DH tracks, Teams of three one rider on each track start together.
Each rider will be given the opportunity of at least 2 timed runs on each track. Entries are capped so there should be time at the end to try and improve a bad run.
The best 2 runs of each rider on each track will be added into the teams total, lowest total time wins.
Sam Hill vs Subaru
Mildly amsuing... ;)
Mount York
At a Glance
Bardens Lookout Bikes
Lockyers Sniggle
Not much room for error - as Rob found out later... doh!
Cox's Alternate Junction
Three distinct routes from the Mt York peninsular to Hartley Valley below - two single track and a third fire trail make for a few combinations with one thing in common - the 250 vertical metre drop. This is steep, and on occasion, very tricky stuff.
DH forks, marzocchi 66 vs Fox 40's
Hi,
I'm riding a giant glory0 (the free-ride model). It currently has a pair of Marzocchi 66SL 1 ATA Air, 140-180mm. And i'm thinking of putting on some Fox 40's... Cause I reckon I would be better of with some fat double crown forks to lift the front end a bit higher...
Does anyone have any advice on this idea? Do you think its worthwhile? Are dual crown forks that much better than single??
Cheers,
Nik
