Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: Serge C on November 06, 2009, 05,45:50 AM Pete, I just wanna know if the heamoroid cream (that you have for your 'condition'), is the same as the stuff you used to grease the pan with, prior to cooking the spring rolls, and wether it will work as a good bead lubricant on the new 404's I'm gonna buy and fit for your training weekend? ;D Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: Brad on November 06, 2009, 09,05:29 AM Peter doesn't use a brand its home grown on two fronts?
Because home remedies for hemorrhoids really work? YES As another Doctor said who lived in Jerusalem, Israel. "I was suddenly struck down so bad with Hemorrhoids that I haven’t slept in three nights nor left the house in three days. Desperate I went randomly to Google and stumbled into a website – straight for home remedies and put some of them straight into action. It has been the first time since this started that I was able to breath[e] after trying them. I just wanted to say thank God and Bless you and yours for ever and ever!" Yes, these hemorrhoids home remedies really do work. Dr Brad babble babble bla bla... Honey get me another beer! Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov.

Thanks Kikka Lance Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: DanJ on November 25, 2009, 03,55:59 AM Looks like Saturday might be slightly damp, not afraid of a bit of rain though, but can any veteran riders to Eildon shed any light on what the conditions can be like when it gets damp there? Rear tyre on bike (WR250F with a Michelin M12) has only 1-2 weekends left in it (about 1cm of knobby left in middle) Keen to know from someone who's been there if it's a hard place on tyres and a difficult terrain when wet. Might try to replace before then if the conditions are known to be tough when wet.
Looking forward to meeting everyone. Dan Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: dennisd on November 25, 2009, 04,34:22 AM Life is too short to muck around with a tyre that is clearly past its use by time. They don't cost a fortune but a good tyre can be the difference between a great day out and a bugger of a day. Having said that, much of the riding in the Eildon area where peter usually goes is rocky in parts and gravelly in most places. Generally a new tyre is not essential in the wet there, but why bugger up a great day out with a tyre that should be off to the re-cycle place. Get a new one!
Dennis Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: Peter r on November 25, 2009, 04,49:53 AM Do yourself a favor and buy a Bridgestone M404 rear.
I can sell you a tyre for $95.00 Title: Re: Eildon L1 SUPER EASY + Beginner training 28th Nov. Post by: DanJ on November 25, 2009, 05,18:42 AM Yea the plan is to replace with a Bridgestone M404, reviews are good. Riding around near home on harder ground, hills and some mud (when I can find it) has been fine. As I've never been to Eildon I just not sure if a little bit of rain turns the place into a mud bath. Dennis's description of Eildon in the wet sounds good, thanks for the heads up. The original forecast was for fine weather so was never a concern, just thought it was worth checking to be safe. Will replace if I can book it in tomorrow unless I have to head insterstate. Thanks again.
