I just spoke to the hotel. Each room has 1 double bed and 2 singles, so we can accommodate up to 18 people if we need to.

NOOG

I might have to give them a ring tomorrow and book another room or two.

NOOG

What's the train time on Friday ?

BTW I'll be backing this up with 200k on Sunday

The ride is on Sunday. We're staying in the hotel the night of the 31st which is Saturday. So we'll need to catch the train on Saturday.

NOOG

Ok...I've tentatively booked 6 ensuite rooms (2-3 people per room @$80 each incl. breakfast) for the 31st of October . There are a few more rooms available so if we're quick I can snatch those up as well It's up to Simon, but I guess the first 12 or so people who confirm on the forum, get the rooms....

NOOG

The Fixie Century is on the same weekend.

NOOG

3. Hill climb (bottom of the bank on the corner to the top)

I don't think this would even be possible...(ie. there's a beer in it for the first person to do it going straight up the bank)

NOOG

im one of the cruisier riders

Says he who'll ride to waterfall in the morning, getting back just in time to race B-grade at Heffron and then head off on a "training ride" to LaPerouse

NOOG

I know Christian was giving it some thought too.

NOOG

Hey guys I have 2 potential dates; 17th & 31st of October?

We probably need to book this week. Apparently the accomodation is already booking out.

I'd prefer the 31st. The 17th is only a week after the Scott 24hr. I'm not sure my body could take two consecutive weekends of punishment.

NOOG

I've just signed up as well.

NOOG

I am interested and am available that weekend. This would be my first road race.

There was discussion of this race after the omnium today.

If you're in, I'm in...

NOOG

I never received the email Weiyun any chance of a resend?

Me too.

NOOG

i might ride out there with the slowies?

That's what Tim (othy) and myself are doing.

NOOG

I'm in.

NOOG

I'll be up for the training rides...I won't be doing the Grafton though.

NOOG

The SRAM 1090R has holes in the link plates and the 1090 doesn't. I think you save about 10g, so you're paying around $3/g. For mountain biking, I think as long as your chain is nickel plated, you should be alright. The chain's usually only getting wet in puddles and river crossings anyway, so it's ...

NOOG

Without the waffle:

I'd say go with Ignitors on the front and Holy Rollers on the back.

WTB tyres have a reputation for being pretty heavy. They do last a long time though.

NOOG

What tires would be recommended for the course? I need to buy some anyway. I have been reading about tires for the last hour and my head is now swimming. A good option appears to be a Maxxis Ignitor 2.1 on the front and a Larsen TT 2.0 on the rear. But WTB Nanoraptor seem to get a good rap for both...

NOOG

I'll give it a go. If I start Saturday night I should be done by morning.

NOOG

This ones for Tim. Jens had me cracking up

NOOG

There's a good close up of what happened to his front wheel here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cd5k8TaAJk8
It looks like he just slipped on the paint.

NOOG

I use eggbeaters and candys on different bikes. I'd probably recommend the candys, as they give you a better platform and they're also a lot easier to clip into (you can still sort of pedal until they clip in) Eggbeaters take a bit of getting used to, but there's a weight advantage and when you're c...

NOOG

I could be up for this one, maybe as a pair if anyone is interested.

That's only 6 hours of riding

Solos would be fun, we can pace each other through it. I don't particularly feel like riding by myself for 12 hours. Especially if we're using it as a training/prep ride for the 24.

NOOG

I'm keen if anyone is up for the trip.

NOOG

Entries are OPEN!

Go to 'Race Info' and then 'Online Race Rego'

I've entered as a solo because I have no friends. Get in quick!

NOOG

So if someone wants to take me on a ride, please feel free. I will warn you that I'll probably be annoyingly slow and cautious to begin with. Me and a few mates go mountain biking every Saturday if you want to tag along... Manly Dam will probably be closed tomorrow due to the rain so we were going ...

NOOG

I hope Rogers is OK. It didn't look too good

NOOG

I prefer the 'DHBC' in circles down the sides of the jersey to the
'Dulwich Hill B.C.' writing.
The 'DHBC' would look cool down the sides of the skinsuit too.

NOOG

I'm out too

NOOG

website address across the bum of the knicks and skinsuit?

NOOG

I don't think that the colour of the knicks can be changed from pure black.

Fair enough. The first ones that Matt photoshopped look really good though.

NOOG

I reckon C would look pretty good in a skinsuit.

NOOG

just have to decide on forks, and find another seatpost (though my temporary solution should arrive today).

How about one of these.....

NOOG

So, the Planet X is being ordered.

NOOG

If I want to ride DGV on Friday night, I need some new tyres. I've been told the current ones on the bike aren't going to be suitable for riding that track (not sticky enough).

They need to be smaller than 23's too. We tried Christian's training wheels on Victoria's bike and his 23's were too fat.

NOOG

Count me in

(+1 vegetarian)

NOOG

So I did get rolled in the sprint! I really need to learn how to throw the bike rather than thrust my head out - or just win by a mile a la the winner's race!

NOOG

Simon Gerans dropped by cervello?

I think he just wasn't selected for the tour. He's still with Cervelo

With the benefit of hindsight, a liquid lunch probably wasn't a good idea.
After climbing out of Stanwell park my legs just turned to jelly

On the plus side though, I did manage to squeeze in a nap on the train.

NOOG

Count me in as 'some other'.

NOOG

Count me in...unless its raining...I melt.

NOOG

Great circuit and great racing. Thanks to Simon and others who spent hours getting this off the gound. Really enjoyed it.

I second that

NOOG

Do we know what happened to the results of the last Omnium?

NOOG

VERY nice. I always liked the look of the 'nose' on that frame.

NOOG

Are we just having one bunch?

NOOG

I was looking at the route on bikely. I might meet you at 720 or so at Timbrell park. Where the Bay Run turns around.

NOOG

Sounds good. I'm up for it

NOOG

Alright, it seems like the bridge is the way to go. How about I meet the group at 650-700 at the start of the bike path along the bridge.
If it doesn't rain that is.

NOOG

I think the link to your map turned out a bit funny Alex.
Over the Harbour bridge looks pretty easy too

NOOG

Highlight for me was dodging a falling branch that Mick managed to knock straight off a Gum Tree.

NOOG

Good Point.
Let's say meet at 10am for the 10:23 train

NOOG

A few of us (Simon, Christian, myself & Lindsay?) will be heading out to the Blue Mountains Easter Friday morning if anyone is interested. We'll be riding the Andersons and then the Oaks fire trail. It'll be around 50-60km all up. The ride will start at Wentworth Falls and finish at Glenbrook Me...

That 10 hr lap must have really taken it out of you Simon

Average speed of 1.42km/h

Thanks for that Christian. I'll definitely need some help unloading the cars. The gazebo is pretty big and heavy. We'll try to get to the campsite at about 830-9am on Saturday morning. If anyone has a spare pot or saucepan they could bring along, it'd come in handy to cook your stuff. My girlfriend ...

NOOG

I've got a camping stove...I'm trying to line up a gazebo. It should be no problems. They're going for under $100 at Rays Outdoors if somebody wants to by one though.

NOOG

Christian, here's the place I was telling you about at the track. $300 for Kreitlers is pretty good. Shipping is about $100 or so. It has plastic end caps though
