Following on from the wildly successful inter-agency weekend lantana lash of a few weeks ago, I present to you the mid week "Turgid" lantana lash. This is to enable those shift workers that are off during the week to get fair up it. Meeting at the Shaw's Farm gate at 0900 hrs to rendezvous with Glassy, Danny and Vickii we will proceed to tear the stinking lantana a new one! Duration of play will be approximately 4 hours, but if you can't stay that long, worry less. You are free to depart at your whim.

Gone!

OK, here are the links the Clean Up Australia Day page Xuela has started, and the location page.
And down the bottom is her email address if you need to contact her. I think Beth may be working on the day at Glenbrook, but the girls and I shall be there.

Thoughts on these trails...

Just rode Yellowmundee and loved it....thanks to the WSMTB who maintain it....nice, flowy, fun, fast....

So i am just curious how some crew out there would rate the following tracks in terms of difficulty, fun, fitness level, flow....and any other info they may wish to add...have chosen these cause i either regularly ride them or rate them as my favs....

Ourimbah, Menai, Yellowmundee, Manly Dam, Coondoo

I posted a ride at Ourimbah without checking if there was a race on there which there is, so I thought Yellomundee might be some fun, cause i have not ridden there for a year or so. Lets hope not much rain fall between now and the weekend.
I would like to get 3 laps in (not sure of the distance at the moment). It is social, but not for beginners.
I can offer a lift for one person from around Top Ryde, Homebush area.
Bring some snacks and drinks as we can have a quick pit stop at the cars each time round if need be.

Anyone fancy Yellomundee this weekend?

Hey... so for those not going to DW this weekend, anyone fancy a trip to Yellomundee for a few laps of fun?

Am thinking Sunday, a 9 or 10am start at this point but open to suggestions.
