Looking to do a few (say 3) laps of Manly Dam on Sunday and some compamy would be welcome. I usually lap in the low 40s. The aim is to ride the lap non stop with regrouping at the hydro lab or Wakehurst parkway.

See you there Smiling

Wednesday, 26 December, 2012 - 07:30
Ride Database Entry: 
Old Man's Valley
Meeting Point: 

Dural St car park, between Dural Lane and Dural St, rear of corner of Dural St and Pacific Highway Hornsby

Assuming SNORC's twitter feed is accurate, the track is now open!

The reason for pickng this spot to park is to minimise noise impact on neighbours. Please do not park in Quarry Road until we get guidance on what's acceptable/expected from SNORC.

This trail is rated Blue (intermediate) with some Black (advanced) options. If you can handle all the descents at Manly Dam without walking you will be fine on the blue route, although the berms and bridges may mess with your head at first Eye-wink.

Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.

SATURDAY LOOKS LIKE A SCORCHER AT 33, WHICH MEANS EVEN HOTTER ON GNR. PM ME IF INTERESTED IN DOING SUNDAY MORNING INSTEAD.

I haven't done a NoBMoB ride for an age, due to a demanding first year of Electrical Engineering, reinforced with self confessed laziness (not in terms of cycling, but in terms of getting on the computer and posting a ride!)

My last exam is going to be the preceding week, so I am looking forward for an opportunity to hit some serious riding following that, and hoping that there will be some willing wheels to join me for it.
