Old Man's Valley (Hornsby) Post Christmas Fat Burner
Dural St car park, between Dural Lane and Dural St, rear of corner of Dural St and Pacific Highway Hornsby
Assuming SNORC's twitter feed is accurate, the track is now open!
The reason for pickng this spot to park is to minimise noise impact on neighbours. Please do not park in Quarry Road until we get guidance on what's acceptable/expected from SNORC.
This trail is rated Blue (intermediate) with some Black (advanced) options. If you can handle all the descents at Manly Dam without walking you will be fine on the blue route, although the berms and bridges may mess with your head at first .
If you're mainly a Terrey Hills kind of rider, we'll set something up later once the initial burst of activity has died down where you can session some of the tricky bits if you want.
Weather plan:
Due to quite a few sections of the trail being wooden - and elevated - if it has rained in the morning, the ride will be put off - sand tracked onto wet timber is a recipe for unplanned dismounts and lost skin.
Were you there and have a story to tell?

I'm a maybe at this point. It depends on when our last guests leave Christmas night and how many beers are consumed.

All I can say is WELL DONE!
Someone knows what we want and how to build it!
Easily the best constructed and most fun Mtb area in Sydney and surrounds.
Look forward to the rest of it being completed.
Awesome work!
Can't wait till Boxing Day. Exciting to have a new venue reasonably close. Pic's look great.
Well I‘ve ridden a small section of the track and DARN it's good and was looking forward to a boxing day cruise but don't like the look of the weather! Will be out unless there is an amazing change in rain level, but definitely will be back when it dries! http://nobmob.com/node/39649
Yep, I've taken Rob's views on board and canned it.
Hopefully Sunday?
