<title>Heaphy Track to opens to mountain bikers May 2011 (no replies)</title><link>http://www.mountainbike.co.nz/forum/read.php?7,587,587#msg-587</link><description><![CDATA[ The NZ Conservation Authority has just approved the Kahurangi National Park Management Plan with mountain biking being trialed on the Heaphy, Flora Saddle to Barron Flat and the (full) Kill Devil tracks.<br /><br />The Heaphy season is May through September - commencing May 2011. Flora Saddle and Kill Devil are year 'round.<br /><br />Plenty are keen to see the trial fail, so message to the mtb community will be all about sticking to the rules:<br />- keep to the (Heaphy) season<br />- stay away in the big wet - DOC may close the track from time to time.<br />- keep to the track - no exploring by bike<br />- take your time - no single day blasts across the Heaphy<br />- maximum group size of 6<br />- no night riding<br />- no bikes in huts or under verandahs]]></description>

<title>Android application for mountain bikers (no replies)</title><link>http://www.mountainbike.co.nz/forum/read.php?7,352,352#msg-352</link><description><![CDATA[ There is an Android application which may be of interest to your members. It is called CRADAR (CRAsh Detection And Response). It is free to download and use.<br />Here is how it works:<br />If you fall from your bicycle, the smart phone detects the fall, and if you do not enter an “I’m OK” signal in a user-settable number of seconds, the phone will initiate a call for assistance to a number that you have designated and will include your GPS location.<br />This seems like a natural for riders who cycle alone, especially off-road.]]></description>

<title>How to wear a compression long pant for cycling? (3 replies)</title><link>http://www.mountainbike.co.nz/forum/read.php?7,10,10#msg-10</link><description><![CDATA[ Hi there,<br />I just bought a compression long pant but I'm not sure what's the right way to wear it. Should I wear another short pant on top of my compression long pant or it's ok to just wear the compression long pant for cycling?]]></description>
