By pancakes - Posted on 01 April 2013

Just caught up with a guy I know very well in council. There are concrete plans to have a 24 hr MTB race around the dam sometime soon. As part of it 2km of existing and new single track will be cut in on the southern side climb.

About time I say! Should be announced shortly.

I did manage to glean a contact to get more info... all correspondence for sponsorship etc to [email protected]

Plenty of people had heard and were getting practice laps in.

I heard they're going to dig a tunnel under Wakehurst Parkway to join up the Bantry Bay loop
