Free seat to Awaba Sun morn
Hey guys,
I'm heading to Awaba early Sunday morning for a few laps with Craig on his new rig. I'm driving up, leaving my place in Winmalee at around 6:30am. If any BMORCers are keen for a ride, I'm happy to give you a lift up if you either drive to my place or are in Winmalee or on the way (i.e Richmond etc. I normally head through Richmond, Annangrove, Cherrybrook, Pennant Hills to F3).
We're looking to do a few laps to decide whether we want to race the 8hr in a few weeks.
Cheers.

I know a lot of BMORCers and others will be hitting up the Kanagra Classic on Sunday 16th October, but if some aren't, or there are lurkers who are looking for something to do, this is a worthy rally.
Here is some info on coal seam gas mining.

Runkeeper Website and App
A fantastic website and app (not required) that can compete with Garmin. And its FREE!
Yes i have a Garmin and I can upload my garmin results to Runkeeper also.
Just like Garmin Connect, runkeeper will map your route and show you a variety of results and stats for your activity.
My Favourite part about using this app is every 5mins it will tell my via the phone speakers the distance traveled, current speed, avg speed, avg pace. These are all optional plus there are other voice readouts you can choose from.

May have to go for the guy on the Slovakian rock face
Reminds me of last years Banff film of that dorky but incredible rock climber
Had a minor freak out freeclimbing half dome in Yosemite (I think it was half dome)
No ropes, mistake = death, standing back to the vertical face on a sliver of rock less width than a kerb and asking himself 'what am I doing here'
You no longer need a wheelbarrow on track days
Track days will be so much more fun and productive if you had one of these!
