The Oaks At Night.
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook Station Carpark.
This will be the classic Oaks route from Woodford to Glenbrook station via the firetrail then single track and then the last technical section at the end but with a twist it will be in the dark. I expect this ride will be a lot of fun especially the single track in the dark.
The pace will be social with a stop or two along the way to wait for straglers.
Does Size really matter
Over recent times there has been increased debate over size and in particular can an extra 3 inches really make a difference – I was curious and last night I lost my 29er virginity and here are my thoughts.
The Bike: Surly Karate Monkey (Chromo) with RST M29 forks (80mm), Single Speed running 32/20.
The Track: Terrey Hills - Perimeter /Long tracks (24k), muddy and at night.
This was my maiden voyage on a 29er, apart from laps of my driveway setting up the saddle.
Sat 21/06 - Duckholes, Centre, Perimeter and Long Track
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Hello to anyone that is watching.
I wanted to do a fairly fast but social ride through Terrey Hills this Saturday. Starting at Duckholes and Centre, then work back out towards Perimeter and Long trail, and back to the shops. The choice of track will give somone the ability to bail half way through the ride if need be.
Depending on who is coming along, this should take about 3 hours (or maybe 4 if we don't push a particularly fast pace). Total distance travelled will be about 30km.
