The dispenser would last a full ten minutes here in Sydney. :(

Hi all,

As you may be aware, the Velodrome events of the Mens 1klm and Womens 500 m Time Trials are to be cut from the program at the Beijing Olympics.

Here is a link to a website collating an electronic petition to try to keep these events.

I would encourage everyone who can to sign this.

good to see some aussies representing, does anyone know of some good victorian bike trails?

jock 06-19-05 04:09 PM

Bugger.

Brad got Points Classification. Small bonus I guess. Better than a Formula 1 race with only six cars in it! :mad:

Olympic team pursuit gold medallist Steve Wooldridge has had a serious crash in a tour race in France on Friday. The Australian was on a descent when he crashed and broke his jaw in five places. Wooldridge lost several teeth and was transferred from France to Cologne after seeking practical medical advice.

He will be undergoing a major surgery and will also require wiring of the jaw in a week's time. His wife Danielle is on her way to be with him as he will be laid up in hospital for some time.

MTB trails ? Or biking/touring type trails?

How much time have you got? The short answer is - Drive in any direction out of Melbourne for an hour, park your car, go ride.

Welcome MSD...Lot's of Aussi's here. Don't get too offended by the rude one's, like...nah, you'll figure it out.

Re you're question, go to any good book store and buy the Bicycling Victoria's Melbourne Trails book and you'll find several thousand kilometres of trails.

Is the aussie team just trying to lull the Brits into a false sense of security for the Ashes or are they just not a very good one day side?

Thylacine 06-19-05 06:49 PM

Big night on the p¡ss is my guess. :rolleyes:

Given that the Aussi cricket team are highly trained athletes, this could not be possible... :rolleyes:

so I got one of those nice "hippers" just on my backside from a wipeout Saturday. A nice apple sized graze shall we say. Just went to the loo, dropped me keks and OUCH !!!, my undies were nice and stuck to it. Seems as though it had dried up at work today. Are you having lunch about now? Just though I'd share.

jock 06-19-05 09:46 PM

I'm going to my safe place now :o

Thylacine 06-19-05 09:54 PM

Mate, I'd eat a sandwich in a morgue.

What you need is some non stick pads, tape, some Betadine and a good woman to say to you repeatedly......."You stupid idiot"

got some today at lunch, my arse thanks me. I have the good women to say that, she also says, "you're too old for that, you should take it easy and not do dumb things". :)
