Red Hill repeat
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
I'm looking to do a repeat of the Red Hill ride we did last Saturday. We'll attempt to cover all of the main trails up there as well as anything else of interest, the main ride will be basically this :
Main trail -> single track -> rim ride -> down to the sports centre -> back up the sand pit -> across the top -> downhill track -> along the parkway -> back up the 4wd track to the top -> main trail back to the start.
All of this is entirely rideable and the downhill track has A,B,C,D lines so, yes you CAN ride it on almost anything.
Were you there and have a story to tell?

What kind of pace are you planning to ride at? Ive wanted to do red hill for a while just don't want to hold anyone up
I will try and make it but I need a new chain as I smashed it up last week
Going on last week as long as your bike frame doesnt crack then you will be alright.
It does get pretty technical but the most puffed I got last week was carrying my bike up that 100m hill.
Sorry Scott, can't make it. I got a new chain but the cassette is too worn for the new chain and it constantly jumps gears under large torque. So now i need a new cassette and possibly front sprocket too.
Not sure if I will make this... I've got some emergency work to do in the early hours of Saturday morning, so can't guarantee I'll be here. Since noone has shown any interest, and it likely to be raining anyway - I'll just change this to "It's off".
Wayno : If you're keen for a ride later in the morning/midday let me know.
