[Mod. in our calendar: Public meeting with NPA]

THE FUTURE of mountain biking at Narrabeen Lagoon will be debated at a public forum on Monday, February 22.

Hosted by the Friends of Narrabeen Lagoon Catchment, the forum follows the recent banning of bike riding from single-track sections of Manly Dam, the last legal ones of their kind in Sydney.

Bobbin Head update for 18 Feb

Area: 
Bobbin Head
Status: 
Green/Open

Bobbin Head track and Jacob track both OK yesterday. Still a few wet bits on top of the ridge and some additional and deeper rutting on the Bobbin Head descent on the bits where there are no water bars, so take it easy first time on that bit. Otherwise, the sand build up behind the water bars means a more friendly take off angle!

Do you have more information?

As at 17 Feb, Murrua Track to "no tankers" sign is fine, including side track starting near the gate. Single track from Samuel King Oval to Macrae Pl has a couple of boggy bits. Rest not ridden since the big rains.

Spread the news in the office

Dunno about anyone else, but there are quite a few cyclists in the office I frequent at the moment.

So I printed out the main jist of the Manly Dam story, a little explanatory text and the council's press release and stuck it up in the bike cage.

While I was doing this two guys asked about it and were horrified. One claimed to never ride an MTB but then when he saw it was Manly Dam said, "Oh yead - I've been there!"

Bag For commuting.

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi,

I have recently started commuting to work, i current;y have started easing into this and at the start and end of the week catching the bus and using this as my way to get all my gear into work for the week, Towel etc.

My question is, What is a good size bag that would need to hold at the most a Towel, change of clothes and probably a spare tube etc.. I am lucky that I work in casual clothes. So no need for suits, basically jeans/shorts and t-shirts!

Red Hill update for 17 Feb

Area: 
Red Hill

its a double RED.

Went up for a look, the fire trail up there from maybrook to lady penrhyn is totally dry ( but this is the boring part ) and any of the other bits ( fun parts ) are way too wet to ride and even too wet to run/walk! and I'd guess the western side's that heads to rim ride would be terrible.

If your thinking about riding... its a total waste of time and I doubt that it will be OK for a ride till at least Sunday.

Oh well; a good thing ( or a bad thing?) is that this much rain and "those other things that run on fossil fuel" have made some parts look more technical. Cool

Do you have more information?
