Terrey Hills + West Head
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.
Craig & I are planning an afternoon blast around Duck Holes, Warimoo, Centre & Terrey Hills (Perimeter + Long) Thursday arvo.
The route is most likely going to be same as this:
http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/5067894
We will be aiming for virtually zero stops and total time out of less than 4 hours. Depending on how that goes we might even tag a visit to Duffys Trail on too.
It's a bit of an unconventional schedule (early thursday arvo - yay! 
) but anyone looking for a long ride at decent pace is welcome to come along.
MWMTB or other organised trail advocacy?
So, getting little traction in organising anything here I'm wondering what my club MWMTB is doing for trail advocacy in sydney? (having paid my admittedly paltry fee...) From a pretty brief search on Farkin and the MWMTB website all I could see related to trail advocacy was that the MWMTB trail advocacy officer is Paul Lidgard. But what's he done with my $10 
We're really not very good at publicising what we do in this respect so I'm left frustrated and optionless to do anything useful other than write waste paper basket fillers to pollies.

Getting fitter...
Was meant to meet a mate for a casual dam lap on easter monday, but he pulled out so I decided to do a time trial. Also had the missus telling me I didn't have enough time to do an arvo ride before the father-in-laws' b'day dinner (ended up being late, but was happy with the time so I copped the abuse).

Power Output
Warning: Nerd content (and probably inaccurate at that) below!
Just now I was pondering efforts at the Quarry Climb and was curious as to what amount of power is being put out on that climb. Yes, yes, have some time this morning...
Anyhow, so I start with basic fizziks:
1. Power = work done / time taken
2. Work done = force on object x distance object is moved
3. Forget anything fancy (as I don't know)... force on object = mass x gravity if you lift it in a straight line.
