The Single Speed World Champs are on this year in Woodend. Dates are the 21st to the 23rd of October. Should be a good weekend, definitely worth hacking a single speed mountain bike together if you don’t have one already. Website is [http://sswc2016.com/](http://sswc2016.com/) and entries are open today. ---

Rumour has it a [bunch of clowns from here](http://dirtydeedscx.blogspot.com) are lending their incompetence at Cx race organising to the event’s shenanigans. Saturday afternoon at hanging rock by all reports… Plus Damo (one of the organisers) is a legit awesome dude. ---

I am just waiting to get me holidays approved (or will chuck sickies!). I have pitched a story on the comp to [Australia Wide](http://www.abc.net.au/news/programs/australia-wide/) at ABC, and it looks they’re pretty interested - my contact is Aido (Adrian Whittaker) - but Nikcee if you know anyone else who would be willing to answer a few question, maybe appear on camera can you let me know. Because the race is in Vic - the story will be produced outof the Vic Regional office (I was hoping to produce it) - but I may be filming the main race on a go pro. Anyway - I’m psyched - should be there from the Friday arvo to Monday. ---

Probably. He’s big, has a beard, and plays rugby. Two of those three things are common to Samoans. ---

Have you already got a camping ticket Mike? Or are you camping? $60 to camp at the oval seems a bit steep ---

> [@iamsimon](#): > > Have you already got a camping ticket Mike? Or are you camping? $60 to camp at the oval seems a bit steep The $60 covers 3 nights though, so not that bad. I will be camping there, there’s a bunch Sydney/newcastle people coming down as well. …but if Mikdee/Nikcee an other melb FOAMAfia have a house I might end up parking out the front! ---
