The Mont 24 Hour
Thanks to a great team; Brian, Dicko, PS, Craked and GaryinOz
My first 24 hour race and I wasn't sure with my expectations; had a really busy few weeks leading up to it was generally disorganised and a little stressed with it all. Finally got my act together and left to drive down on the Friday evening. Stopped in Sutton Forest for petrol; cold and windy. Got the new Dirty Three album going round Lake George and got myself into the right frame of mind. Cold and windy setting up camp with the guys around 11pm which was OK, way better than rain.
Blue Mountains Early Sunday morning ride: Oaks up and back
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook station carpark.
Recovery ride after the Mont
!
Scheduling this for 7am, so that people taking the train from Sydney could join.
Cheers,
Volker
a heater would have been nice..
As always a fun event, if a little cold!! (more than a little cold.. it was f%$#ing freezing)… seems that if it’s not raining then its freezing, at least we didn’t get the “raining and freezing” as that would have been horrible.

Yellomundee Regional Park update for 26 Mar
Yellomundee is finally drying out a bit, and hopefully will be OK on Sunday 1 April for a Club XC round (all welcome!).
But there are still a few issues out there due to erosion damage in Jan/Feb/March:
- both bridges over Shaws Creek are gone, and the trail down to the Trotting Track has dangerously deep wash aways. So please don't ride north of the tarred road at Shaws Farm. This area has been roped off with bunting and signs (not that everyone can read it seems!).
- the area west of the fire road up towards the transmission lines (Tower of Pwer, V Ditch, etc) has massive erosion damage. Please stay clear. Again, it has been roped off with bunting and signs.
- there are other areas with areas of mud. Please don't widen the track or churn it up. Just get off and walk for a few metres please.
As always, if it has rained in the past few days then please give YRP a miss. It is still very damp out there.
thanks

There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.
Hi all - we're hoping that the weather will be OK for this Sunday, 1 April and that we will finally be able to get a race in at Yellomundee.
All welcome! Rego from 8am to 8.50 (so we can start U13s at 9am). Seniors race at 9.30am.
Weather updates will be posted on www.wsmtb.com or on the WSMTB Facebook page.
See you there.
