Getting keen!

How about meeting 6am at Glenbrook and ride UP Oaks+Andersons and turn around when we meet the group coming down?

We could also run sweeps on where the meeting point will be Smiling!

Ok, last Sunday's ride clearly highlighted Hills as being a limiter in my current performance Smiling.

So, I have half a thought of trying to go Oaks up and down. This would have the additional advantage of cutting out about an hour of dubious entertainment on the 6.53 train up to Wentworth Falls.

Otherwise it is Andersons& Oaks again. Comments?

Allright, let's try this again. Andersons and Oaks taking the 6:53 train out of Glenbrook!

Cheers,

Meet at Glenbrook and get the 6.53am train up to Wentworth Falls. Come back via Andersons and The Oaks firetrail. I am hoping it clears up a bit until Sunday, I don't intend to ride in the rain.

I have never done the Andersons, but have GPS Smiling.

I would appreciate feedback from some of the locals (Chuck, Username2?) whether we can or should ride the trails under the current weather conditions. I would assume that we should probably leave out The Oaks single trail and stay on the dirt road instead.

Cheers,
Volker

AndOaks over New Years?

I'm home between Dec 31st and Jan 3rd inclusive and am hoping to ride Anderson's and Oaks during that time period. I've considered hitting St Helena as well as I haven't done that one before.
Since Knapsack Reserve is open now, the idea of riding around there is a possibility after spending a fortune at Glenbrook Cake store at the end of the huge climb at the end of the Oaks.

Any takers at the moment?

UPDATE:
I had a flashback this morning and realized that the car park at the park entrance is not open before 8am and some people seem to have difficulty to find it.

=> New meeting point: the usual Glenbrook Station Car Park.

Sorry for the late change! See you there.

This is a training ride for the Angry Doctor.

Oaks + Andos - Up... up... up training ride

Hey guys, since Angry Doctor will be an elevation madness event, I'm thinking in putting some uphill Kays and it seems that Oaks + Andos is a good take (longish and good elevation). What about 14th of June??? Any takers???

Cheers,

Leo.

Andersons & The Oaks

Meeting Point: 

Glenbrook train station carpark to catch the 6.53am train dont forget to change your clock 1 hour backwards from current daylight savings time.

Glenbrook station

This will be a medium to quick paced training ride with the dirtworks in mind so there will be minimal stops and plenty of mashing up the hills (for me anyway on the single speed) I believe it is about 60km so you will need to be able to do that sort of distance with relative ease.

Meet at Glenbrook station carpark with plenty of time in hand to get ready and organized to catch the train now at 6.53am to Wentworth Falls from there I will need a guide as last time couldnt find Andersons and spent the day looking for it (would of helped if I had remembered to bring the directions).
