Same as Hawkeye... I might be keen for this one.. What time are you planning to meet?

hadnt really set a time. I am coming from Manly, so i guess it will take an hour or so to get there, so probably 0730-0800

Sorry guys but I'm pulling the pin on this one as I did 44km around Awaba this morning and I'm ruined!

Enjoy the ride guys

hey lads.

new to the Ourimbah area.

pretty keen to join a regular group to ride Ourimbah and any surrounding track. Anyone keen on a ride this week-end? Nite rides included.

Welcome to NobMob. Best way to get a ride meet is to create a ride meeting in the calendar. I'll be heading up to Awaba State Forest tomorrow for some XC laps (nothing quick) if you want to join me? I'll be there around 9am though if my heavily pregnant wife goes into labour tonight I might have to give it a miss!

I'll be checking NobMob in the morning before I leave so if you're keen just send me a message or reply to this post. I'll be sure to let you know if I can't make it

Thanks for offer. Ending up doing some laps out at ourimbah as it's close by. hear awaba is an awesome ride, so keen to get out there as well.

I generally try ride eraly sat/Sun morning to get back by 9am so that i have the day with the kids. Sounds like that is soon to be a consideration for you as well.

Will ride again this week-end as long as the weather doesn't ruin it for everyone. Let me know when suites you.

Awaba is an awesome track but very different to Ourimbah. It's more about the flow at Awaba and much less suited to the bigger suspension bikes. I rate both highly.

Ended up getting a leave pass on Saturday and headed up but only got 10kms into my journey when my car decided to take a nap. Spent the next 2 hrs on the side of the road waiting for the tow truck. Still, I took to the roads and managed a 10km ride from the garage home! Just glad it didn't happen enroute to the hospital with the wife in labour... Don't think her sense of humour would stretch that far after 40 weeks of pregnancy Eye-wink
