50km! ouch. max i've ever done is my house to Engadine while trying to ride to Wollongong. 42km and then i gave up and got the train home.

Last year I did the MS sydney to gong ride. I made it to bulli before I dropped. It as the most pain I have been in for a long time. Dammm

Bulli is pretty good, not too many k's out of wollongong.

I would've gone further I guess if i had eaten before attempting the ride and it wasn't 9pm at night and i couldnt see shit on the road.

omg does this ride go through west ryde/meadowbank?

along the river?

i piked out this year, i woke up at 6:30am ready to do it but then the thought of spending $42 for entry and my ensuing japanese trip made me rethink. also because i ride into work most weekdays anyways (....does it seem like im making excuses???)

anyways, prank, its not 50km its more like 42km isnt it :D:) :)

its a fun ride, going over the bridge is cool, just before the bridge last year it got abit insane. we were at walking pace (sometimes stopping) due to the bicycle traffic!

2gu up, yes it does...

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
