I finally got out into the Illawarra Escarpment and rode the MTB trail Lost and Found for the first time. It is a steep, blue, single track trail with plenty of tech and fun - I can't wait to get back out there to ride it again! Apologies for my brakes, we are having a couple of teething issues after my bike build and we think the brake calliper needs replacing as it appears to leak. 📍 Mount Ke...

My dream custom bike build (S-Works Stumpjumper Evo)

With the retirement of my beautiful bike blue, I built my dream custom bike, a S-Works Specialized Stumpjumper Evo. And yep, with no experience greater than changing a singular tyre and taking my pedals on and off, I undertook the whole custom bike build under the instruction/supervision of Joey.

First time at Cringila Hills MTB Park on my Trek X-Caliber (Hardtail)

After non-stop wet conditions keeping us off the trails for a while, we checked out Cringila Hills MTB Park for the first time. I opted to ride my Trek X-Caliber, and it was fun to mix things up with this bike (after mainly riding pavement and gravel on it). Can't wait to go back for some more laps! 📍 Cringila Hills MTB Park Trails featured: 🟢 Stockpile 🔵 Session 🔵 Sweet Spot 🔵 Vista 🔵 Roost In...

I finally rode the Blue Tier Trail (here's what it's like?)
Переглядів 7197 місяців тому
After a very long wait (with injury preventing me riding last time I was in Derby) I finally rode the famous Blue Tier Trail! For years people have been telling me how it is the dream Lizzie trail and how much I will love it, however, I'm not so sure they were right... but that's probably because I had only ridden twice in the past three (hectic!) months so had no baseline fitness - my bad! 😂 📍...

      Not at Bulli… A lot of the stuff along the escarpment are hand built technical trails with an occasional jump or drop. Possums (once trails works are finished) has a good one and there’s also some jump trails at Cringila. There’s also a lot of places I haven’t explored yet so there could be more.
