I heard about this event via the HMBA so thank you in advance for the heads up on what is a really great race. The recent rain fall made the single track pretty challenging with lots of crashes and technical problems. There is a great photo of a guy attempting to negotiate the last 10km just on his back wheel rim. It was shame that this event really doesn't seem to attract the numbers with probably only 70 competitors if that there. The money raised goes to helping local projects in the area so it's all for a good cause.

Awaba Track open again?

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hi guys
I was planning to head over to Awaba for a ride on Sunday, however I'm not sure if the track has been re-open or not.

Any feedback would be much appreciated since I come from Dungog and don't want to arrive and find it to be closed.

Regards

Wolf

Yet to visit Awaba and keen to know if it is more like Mt Stromlo in Canberra or Kowen Forest just out of Canberra - Thanks in advance for any members able to give me the tip.

Hello, Im in Tighes Hill and went out to Jesmond park trails today. Was pretty good. Some were a little wet but was pretty fun.. Anyone go out there much? Seems like the only place running at the moment. Would be keen to meet up with others that know the area..

Awaba State Forest update for 24 Apr

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
Status: 
Red/Closed

ALL HMBA Members and users of Awaba MTB Park

**ALL TRAILS CLOSED - both XC and DH**

Awaba MTB Park was inspected this morning after the storms earlier this week and has been deemed unsafe for both access and riding. There are a great many trees down, trail blockages and even the access road is currently blocked.

A sign has been placed at the entry to Jenkins Rd advising the closure.

State Forests report advise that the risk of potential injury or even death from tree/limb falls remains very real until the ground dries out a bit.

Watch this space for further news, but please stay out for the time being. We will need some dry weather for things to stabilise before we can start and repairs and this won't be happening this weekend.

Regards
Mark

Just wondering if this area is rideable and not a total hike a bike?
Cheers
