Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to get this one on the radar for those of us who have put in for this ride. For those who haven't put the entires in for this ride entries close on the 17th June. It should be a nice cruisy day out!
From what I can gather (any my information package is at home)
- Registration is at the Woodford Train station at 9.30 - send your entry from in first.
- "Ride" starts at 10am and ends in Euroka
Trail Fix
Amazing what a few zip locks, tape and an allen key can do.
Ridden out of Andersons for 10 km for an early exit for the day.
Is this a first?
Has anyone written on this site whilst racing? Yes... You heard it right. Technically im racing my bike as i speak. In reality im sat in my car waiting for matt to complete his first two laps of the killingworth 8 hour race. So, i have my number on my bike and im part of a two man race team and the start gun has gone off so technically speaking im racing! More roving reports as the day goes on, watch this space.

Perfect Autumn Arvo
Amazing what a new bike can do... Crack'n'Fail - "There is no substitute" 
Started at the lab. Pushed quiet hard climbing up to the sniggle. Took it quiet easy through there, even took the 'B' line onto the rock by golf course. There were a couple riders playing on the steps which I didn't make - the only touch the whole lap was there (cleared the top of the boardwalk).
Kincumba downhill and exploration goodness : )

End of Bronzewing Dr, Kincumber.
It appears we have interest in checking out Kincumba Mountain. Sounds like a nice place to ride. I am always open for riding "new trails". And it looks like we could probably fit in a couple of laps too, if it only takes 20 minutes to ride back up to the top. I will be happy to lead from the back! 
The approximate area to ride, as shown on Google Maps, is:

Grinning ear to ear!
Lap 2 here:

Doing Andersons before The Oaks made it a real struggle to keep pushing here. Technically credit to Steve, John and Murray with the same (if not couple seconds better) time as the four of us were in a convoy almost the whole way.
Awesome stuff, couldn't stop grinning at the bottom despite having a twinge of cramp (blame that on those Andersons climbs earlier) which stretched out quickly enough though.
The Oaks - Helipad to Gate
Not quiet as easy as you think - from the 'helipad' (that's the Oaks Clearing) to the gate has just a little climbing before that grin-inducing flat out fire trail.
Be careful of riders coming the other way and "Dead Man's Corner" - the sharp left near the top of the descent.
New Hot Laps System
There's been a bit of chest beating lately... people have been throwing a few times for Hot Laps at the poor, overworked admin to update. So... bugger that, it's now all automatic.
First off - content authors can now create a Hot Lap Challenge. Goes into the moderation queue as usual, but then other riders can chalk up their times. Have copied the old ones, and am sure a few new goodies can be thought of.
Riders can then enter their times as their own Hot Lap. There it goes, straight on the board with no waiting. Now, be honest - everyone can comment on your time so expect a few digs!
Sounds like this could be fun
