Why is my bruising yellow?

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Folks,

After my late entry into the All-WA bonnet surfing competition - or as you might know it - being hit by sleep driving woman in a Toyota, resulted in me getting what they called a "Simple" Collar bone fracture, now, about 6 days later I have this pale yellow coloured "bruising" apperaring on the front of my shoulder.

Anyone able to tell me why is this colour - and why there was no normal bruising there before?

just curious.

Ian

OpenMTBmap

Does anybody use OpenMTBmap?

I will be curious to see how the maps looks like for Australia.
There are no previews / screenshots for the area, and the only way to see is to pay… heu sorry donate.

Let me know also if you're using it on your Garmi; will be curious too if it does work well on it.

Shipping a bike from Perth to the eastern states

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hey guys, someone from over east is interested in buying a bike I've got advertised in the classifieds, but neither of us have experience of shipping a bike across the country.

Anyone done it? Any suggestions of companies to approach, and what the approximate cost would be?

Thanks.

So there was this thread started by someone who wanted to buy Ortleib panniers, and they couldn't buy them from the usual UK suspects anymore cos the Oz distributor has got to them, and stopped them shipping to Oz. So I suggested some German online retailers instead... then all of a sudden... poof - the thread disappears completely!

MTB hire in Forrest

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Has anyone hired a bike in Forrest, Vic before?

I have only got a little bit of time to go riding whilst I am over there so I don't want to take a bike over for a full trip. There is one mob that pops up online but I am curious who people have sed in the past.

Thanks
