Anyone fancy a bit of a play at the Terry Hills BMX track Saturday morning? I've no definite plans or timing in mind, just not too early.

Anyone know what sort of condition it's in at the mo?

Ta,
Matt.

I'd just post up the time you fancy here and then if anyone else wants to come along they're welcome.

Ta,
Matt.

How about 2.30 instead so I can have lunch first? (11.30 doesn't work so well with mum and bub...)

Dammit but this rain means it's now Terry Hills sandpit, so it's a no go. Hopefully it won't carry on too long and somewhere will be rideable tomorrow... Otherwise have jacket, will ride urban ;-}

me and a mate are going there tomorrow arvo if ur round will be there prob about 4ish..holds up really well in the wet now, drains tops..wont be going if pissing down though..otherwise might hit an urban local like the new stuff to play on at bicentenial park (the glebe/anzac bridgey one) not as much fun but some interesting new drops and stuff to mess around on..anyway food for thought Smiling

TH BMX is a bit far for me to go for something that might be logged, but I'm tempted to have a look at bicentennial park, let me know if you go and I'll try and be there.

Ta,
Matt.

Wet as or dried out?

I went along to Bicentennial but couldn't really see much of interest, other than the usual park benches, hops etc, anything you go for there in particular?

Ta,
Matt.

dry as, not a puddle to be seen, was awesome fun Smiling theyve changed the ground somehow from years ago i think, it drains incredibly well, is very hard packed stuff.. great having that back entry point to get good speed up to hit the 4 doubles on a dh rig too..
bicentenial? yeh i know its lame, but unfortunantly theres not much better except say five dock skate/bmx park in the area..the only thing i found moderatly entertaining for 5 mins was the new concrete pillar/rail things theyve put up on the run from bicentenial around to the boathouse, 1/2 to a metre drops with varying levels and entry points, provided you dont mind people looking at you funny while you ride around jumping off their walking track barriers Eye-wink like i say, about as good as it get round here!
anyway, hitting some trails tomorrow arvo now instead of there.. there has to be some good urban somewhere right? surely?
