Night ride - Glenbrook to the Oaks
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
Night ride - Glenbrook to the Oaks(the middle gate) via Euroka and Bennetts Ridge firetrail, return on the Oaks single track.
The usual @ Terrey Hills
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Pooh!
I had hoped to have time to get over to Yelllomundee this weekend but sadly that isn't going to be the case now.
Instead I'll be having a blast round the usual trails in Terrey Hills (Duck Hole/Center/Perimeter/Long aka. DH+C+P+L).
Pace will depend on who comes along, but am looking to take no more than 2h30 all up no matter what.
Capertee Challenge 2010
The start/finish area is positioned at Mount Airley which is approximately nine kilometres east of Capertee township via Glen Davis Road (tarred).
Now in it's third year the Capertee Challenge raises money for the Paraplegic Benefit Fund of Australia.
A fun weekend in a unique location, this year the event features two track. 1) The Championship course
and 2)and easier, shorter Social course.
The idea is that riders ride the course in one direction on the Saturday, and then in the reverse direction on the Sunday

Northern Beaches endurance
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Late notice but thought I'd post this in case anyone else is fortunate enough to have the day off. I have not been on the mtb for about a month and haven't ridden any bike for about a week so this won't anything too quick but I do not intend to make many stops and those that I do make hopefully won't be for too long. Not 100% sure of the route as yet but something like http://nobmob.com/node/16497. Time is flexible but would like to give myself enough time to go until I cannot go any more.
Awaba multiple loops = at least 50km.
Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
I have two reasons for organising this XC group ride.
1) I let out too much air from my rear shock by accident... I need to borrow someones shock pump. Anyone?
2) Training for the Angry Doctor.
I'm looking at achieving at least 50km of Awaba fun. Nothing too fast or strenuous. I'm not racing, just training. Stretching and eating breaks will be included every lap or two!
Manly Dam x2
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I'm looking to do a couple of laps and maybe a third, depending on how I feel and how damp the track.
Lap 1 will be at an easy training pace of around 45 minutes, looking to do non-stop. Lap 2 will be at social pace ie, with breaks to wait for folks to catch up / catch their breath.
Happy to have folks join for first or second laps. ETA for start of lap 2 would be 12:50.
I'll be away from a computer from 8:45am so use your judgement on the weather - if it's been raining on the day I won't be riding.
Manly Dam "back in the saddle" ride
Wakehurst Parkway
Just picked up a new Giant Trance X2 after not riding for 3-4 years. This will be my first ride out it'll be slow.....
[Mod. fixed up Parkway meeting point address]
ourimbah night spin
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here).
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where a there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB sign here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
just heading up to do a couple of easy laps in prep for saturdays race, be cool to have some people there!
Shack Attack 6 Hour
Cnr Western and Coondoo Rd, Currambene State Forest, South Nowra.
Duck + Centre
Although we don't normally ride this trail on it's own, with a bit of road work it makes a nice loop from Terrey Hills shops (on Booralie Road) then onto Centre Track and back along the road to the shops.
That's the same as the more standard Terrey Hills rides.
Doing Duck + Centre. Will decide at the end of Centre whether we do it in reverse as it might be just too cold. Either way I'm just happy to be getting out on the trails
