And what is the temperature 6am thru 10am? Same time frame as RNP, will only be slightly different
And... the beer will be the same temperature regardless

1. We are running the championship using ATTA facilities. ATTA will be doing all marshaling and timing. 2. I think you are asking me about safety.

I've heard a lot about this course but never done it. For newbies like me, an elevation map can be viewed here: http://www.atta.asn.au/maps/calga.html#dh It's the 25k course. If feels flatter than it looks on the profile, the hills are more like false except for the bigger hill you can as a downhil...

The Century, actually a little more (180k ???) Not Stu's cup of tea. Marrickville -> Wisman's (coffee and brunch) -> Hawkesbury rive...

Re: Adventure Ride - Windsor - November Sunday 23
Is that 100k or 160k? IMO 160k is too far for an inclusive Adventure Ride i.e. too far for me. There's 2 Windsor routes; 1. the long one that goes via Wisemans and is more than 160k off memory. The early part of the ride is hard, going over north side hills. From Wisemans its fairly easy following ...

Fixing flex in plastic soled bike shoes
I've heard a theory that the nylon in plastic soled shoes doesn't actually break down but what happens is that it gets impregnated with water and its this moisture that causes the increased flex. The solution being is to heat them in an oven at 60degC to dry out the moisture. Does someone want to pu...
