Cascades - Saturday 01 Feb
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
End of Wyatt Ave, Belrose - this is on the East side of Garigal National Park.
Only my 2nd time to Cascades, and newly returned to MTB after 25 years absence.
Still learning my bike, and the techniques again.
Social pace, more about just exploring the area and hanging out with other riders.

The Oaks - up and back
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook NPWS entry gate.
Riding up and back on the Oaks. Pace will be social due me being on and off the bike for while. Hopefully my legs will make it okay.
Mowbray Park Farm track official opening
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Just out of Picton. Enter off Barkers Lodge Rd. The track entrance is opposite the main carpark.
This is the official opening of the Wollondilly Trailblazers MTB Club track at Mowbray Park Farm that we have been working on since April 2013. The first 50 riders will receive a showbag with a few bits and pieces in it.
The track is definitely an XC track. It's fast and flowy and has been tested using 26" and 29" bikes, male and female riders, 13-60 year olds and one crazy guy on a fatbike.
The venue is also a working farm so there should be plenty to do for the rest of the family.
Red Hill Sampler
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
As promised..
Plan is to ride most of Red Hill, linking it all up to avoid too much "hike a bike", so you will need 2L of fluids for this one.
This is NOT a fire trail cruise so please don't turn up if you don't got adequate health insurance for coverings of helicopter evacuations and sexy time with nurses while in hospital with broken bodies... OK.. seriously.. Red Hill can break bones and bikes and you will probably bleed at some time on this ride.
if it rains between now and Sunday morning I will cancel the ride as my bike refuses to let me ride it there if its damp.
Oaks Trail Up and Back
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook Station
2 Groups
Group 1 leave Glenbrook station via bike 4.00am sharp. Meet up with Group 2 at Woodford.
Group 1 and Group 2 Leave Woodford by bike (at 7.30am. Just after train arrives.) and head to Glenbrook.
Suggest first timers go for the group 2 option. As No lights needed.
There will be a few riders external to NobMob also.

Morning ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here). Please do not park in this car park.
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB notice board here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up the hill). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
My first ride at Ourimbah. It would be great to ride with someone who has ridden it before.
St Ives sniggle
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
There's a large shoulder on Mona Vale Road (eastbound). A site setup for RBT near the single track start makes a good spot. At the Nursery park right where the single track starts
Heading out for a couple of hours tomorrow morning to test out the new stead. Probably a loop starting at the wildflower garden and ending up across the road coming up from Garigal. Not too fast as I'll be stopping now and then to dial in the shock/fork (well that's my excuse for bad riding anyway)

Xmas Terrey Hills ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
The festive season is a great time of year to spend some quality time with close friends and loved ones - but don't neglect the real 'significant other' in your life - your MTB.
This ride will take in perimeter, long then cullamine tracks to get the heart rate up a bit, then a bit of bitumen and back to to the shops via some single track near the japanese school.
A dessert of some of the best legal single track in the locale courtesy of the st ives sniggle including the golf ball infested 'muppet show' will be served to those who feel up to it on the day.
