Re: Cootamundra Haycarters & Recovery: Sat-Sun 12th & 13th M
Saturday: I lasted approximately 3km in the 8min bunch with John, before getting blown out the back after doing a turn on the front. I still felt alright and rode with another rider before jumping on the next bunch and hanging in there until a group of us dropped off the back following a wind change...

Re: Cootamundra Haycarters & Recovery: Sat-Sun 12th & 13th M
Bunches are pretty much always riding as a rotating paceline, just follow the lead and you'll be fine. If there's a crash, it's up to you. There are official vehicles following, which will stop, but if you're dropped and another dropped rider crashes, you would probably see if they're alright. The r...

Re: Sydney Road Titles - 26th May
The challenge is when you're trying to hang onto the back of the Elite Men bunch in a crosswind at 50km/h+. However, i do agree, flat can be boring.

Re: Cootamundra Haycarters & Recovery: Sat-Sun 12th & 13th M
It's a handicap race, so you're racing everyone. The idea is to work with your bunch to catch the bunches in front of you and not be caught by the bunches behind (less people to sprint for the win against). Bunches merge when caught, you can jump onto a faster bunch when they catch, just don't jump ...

Sydney Road Titles - 26th May
Flat, Fast, and hopefully not too windy.
Entries for the Sydney Road Titles close this Sunday - May 13th (NO LATE ENTRIES)
Held at the Regatta Centre, the course is as flat as you'll ever get, but that means fast, so get your entries in.

The guy on the bottom, since he wasn't actually moving, so must have been there a while.
He might be DQ'd though, as he's out of the sprinters lane, depending on whether he actually took it.

I'm guessing John, Alex, and Rhys want some accommodation. Do you need accommodation Taylor?
I won't be able to give anyone a lift though, as i'll be heading to Canberra for 5weeks after the weekend.

As with all National Championships, you only get to wear the jersey in the discipline you won it, and not during the next National Championships. Since i only ride the Penny once a year, there's no opportunity to actually wear a champions jersey.

Re: Setting the pressure and rebound
From my limited MTB experience. You need a shock pump (i need to return the one i borrowed...). Then you want to have the fork pressure so there's 25% sag (i think it was 25%) when you're sitting on the bike. There may be some pressure guidelines on the forks, otherwise google will probably find them.
