24.01.2022 For more info: https://instagram.com//ratscyclingclub/2496442163539648487

23.01.2022 Same with Dylan...a very talented young photographer...if you see a shot you like, flick him some bucks for it.

22.01.2022 So, this is happening tomorrow. #2020QLDXCOchamps #giantashgrove #rynohire #auscycling

21.01.2022 XC racing tomorrow at Ipswich!

21.01.2022 Carparking available in the Karreman Quarry reserve. Remember ARRIVE EARLY to allow plenty of time to walk from car to the event hub. Team tents can be dropped on site Friday just contact Jo or Bob to arrange vehicle access. https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer

21.01.2022 This was a wonderful result. The master and her pupil who is now state champion in Enduro, Downhill, and Cross Country. What are year for @benforbesmtb! And great to see his coach in all things fitness take out the women's title. Give some love to @b.rad_sports and he'll have more photos up later tonight or tomorrow. #giantashgrove #2020QLDXCOchamps ... #dam(n)chute @ Bp Park Samford See more

20.01.2022 Results.... @ Bp Park Samford

19.01.2022 Many reasons to come tomorrow...maybe even to see these two DRCC young legends battle it out in their 5th or 6th year racing CX together...no excuses! https://linktr.ee/qldcx

18.01.2022 Pack up done. Thanks to all who helped. @giantashgrove especially made this event happen and @rynohire and even @dirtdogsmtb made our track more interesting and there's more of this to come. Results and photos will come. Give us some time to unpack our cars, photos, results and selves and things will start to filter through early evening if we don't pass out. DRCC will have their AGM soon. If you're wondering about any thing that could've been done better, minor improvements ...or major changes, the answer to most of those issues is...volunteers. DRCC prepped the entire track with about two to four volunteers on any day in the lead up. Imagine what we could have done with more. If you're the parent of a young rider, we as a club would consider more support for your children in return for a contribution in volunteer hours. As a club, we run CX, DH, XCO and will be running Enduro. Because this was a state champs, we had extra support on the day...and still needed more people. XC is definitely hardest to run at a club level. CX and proposed enduro events are easier on all volunteer resources so consider joining the committee of your club if you want to get behind XCO. We are currently being asked to support cross country mountain biking for the SEQ series next year but we can't keep asking the same 4-6 people to give up weekends, time with their loved ones, and fuel in their literal and figurative tanks. And I've only had time to think about this as I'm locked out of a storage shed having forgotten the number...and the guy with it has probably collapsed in a heap and is sleeping through my messages deservedly so. @auscyclingqueensland are definitely a great a way forward and awesome to see riders from other disciplines. Thanks again all who made it happen. More content tonight. #2020QLDXCOchamps #giantashgrove #auscyclingqueensland

18.01.2022 Bayview Blast is coming!

17.01.2022 Some great shots from the weekend. Members Corinne and Jeff battling it out at the Shimano GP at Daisy Hill. But my play of the weekend goes to Tom Pidcock, picking his way through 100 riders from an 11th row start at the Albstadt World Cup XCO and finishing 5th. Great to see Alpecin Fenix running a great mtb team too. I remember when you'd never see mountain bikers or cyclocrossers again after they signed pro road contacts. Great to see the flexibility. And well done Jeff and Corinne!

16.01.2022 B.Rad Sports Photography took some great shots of the event. I rather liked this one of Ben...though there are many of the Dam(n) Chute coming tonight. Some great captures already there. And the links are below. https://www.facebook.com/111326793553555/posts/398736308145934/?d=n https://drive.google.com//1UliJG4IqeB6HTtJrzDJmBu7pj-IEf2j... Along with young @dylan_provan, we had this event very well covered so if you see things you like, the good thing to for would be a donation to their camera equipment :) Get in touch. @b.rad_sports has a PayPal link at PayPal.Me/BradWheels. @ Bp Park Samford

15.01.2022 Had a great day of kids racing and ebike in the afternoon. Thanks again to @giantashgrove and @rynohire for the prizes and the course building equipment. I put photos up of Giants in the wild as a tribute. I think we've really improved the kids course at Samford. These photos of the chute come courtesy of @b.rad_sports who has an amazing selection of shots and will be posting a link shortly. Try his Facey link at: https://www.facebook.com/BikesnPhotos/ Please help him pay for... the camera equipment to make these if you do get a shot. Thanks to everyone for all the work you did to help us and all the feedback. Especially Stephen Jennisson, @haydenlester87, Robbie Gould, Adrian, John, @peter_o_, @rockytrailentertainment, @jeffshillington, @lonstertoia and many many many others. This race is one of the hardest and yet most rewarding to host and I've loved it despite the ten billion steps spent on the course today. Look forward to seeing you there tomorrow. #mtbdrcc #2020QLDXCOchamps #giantashgrove #giantbikesaus #rynohire @ Bp Park Samford See more

14.01.2022 Might have left these off... @ Bp Park Samford

13.01.2022 Ben Forbes teamed up with Cam from Dirt Skills' RIGHT AFTER his XC win with a few other locals to put together some content to promote the great work on the trails there and the best ways down them! There's more coming at the end of this week I believe ;)

13.01.2022 A great event for kids next Saturday at Mt Crosby...here's the entry link. https://rockytrailentertainment.com//junior-mtb-grand-pr/ Adults on Sunday...head to Rocky Trail for more details or check my previous posts.

12.01.2022 I tried making a mud map but failed. So take the Gatton exit then right into Old College Rd which is opposite BP, then right into Allan St which will take you ...under the Hwy and onto Adare Rd, drive for while until you see bunting and your there. Track open this arvo and on line entries open till 6pm. Yes you can enter on the day. Yes it will be fast and it's always a fun track. See more

11.01.2022 Love riding the crunchy stuff on drop handlebars? Go out and put the 'wam' in Wamuran...or the 'ran'.

09.01.2022 Yes, if you haven't heard already, the June 19-20th National Cyclocross Series is postponed. We're looking at September's first weekend at this stage but TBA. The risk of further reaching or longer Covid lockdowns were our committee's primary concern. Though as one of the key organisers for the event, my own health is also under a bit of a cloud in the coming weeks with a disc injury setting off an auto immune illness I thought I'd licked. A smaller factor in our decision. We're terribly sorry to anyone who had plans in place and we love putting on this event but better times lie ahead, we're sure and I know I speak for @queenslandcyclocross when I say we would love to see our Victorian entrants, red faced and sweating profusely under the Queensland sun. Thanks. Chris D

09.01.2022 Why you should be racing Shimano GP (as well as Fox Superflow) As the rise of enduro (Fox Superflow) continues, riders are getting much much fitter. The ‘prid...e’ in being out of shape has really reduced in the sport, as people realise to go down a hill fast, you need to be fit. Better suspension, better geo and faster tyres make bikes rapid, but also physical to force the bike to pump and to pull out of corners. Modern bikes like to fly around, and fast riders work hard to get them planted and gripping. Doing multiple laps on your enduro makes you super fit. As fun as racing down only is, it also opens up the world of GP, where you can take that fitness and live real life pacman on your bike. Chasing people down (or refusing to be chased down) is epic fun. We pick courses that have elevation, so if you pin, you get them on the downs, and if you are super strong, get people on the ups. We set up all GPs on a short course (30-45mins tops) so you can change out riders or take a rest. Its racing that is fun, exciting and a epic workout. If its good enough for Jared Graves, its good enough for us mere mortals. We race in 4 our 6 hour blocks and you can race in teams aswell. If you have always ridden your bike on DH or heavy casings, you have no idea how fast your bike is on a lighter tyre. A few pumps in each shock and lighter tyres gets most bikes pretty close to a GP build, certainly enough to have fun and race with friends! Race the way you ride, chase buddies, new and old around a track. It's the best! See more
