Ourimbah Explore/Training
When:
Saturday, 14 June, 2008 - 08:30
Duration:
3 hours
Come Rain or Shine:
If it's raining, I won't be there.
Ride Database Entry:
Ourimbah State Forest Details:
The plan is, well there is no plan. I have never been here before so this is more of an exploring ride. I ride XC so this is not a hard core down hilling adventure but always happy to have a look.
I will look at the ride database before Saturday so hopefully I will have some idea but if anyone signs up with local knowledge that would be good.
Also, while this is an exploring ride I do like to ride at a decent pace.
Who's in?
lorrie, leopafe, Gary, lozza6, Brian, Hans, LadyToast, JB (8 riders)

Were you there and have a story to tell?

Woohoo!! the xc track rocks!
I feel quite gutted after missing the Canberra trip.
Anybody want to a lift or want to car pool?. I live in Lane Cove.
Andrew
The whole place is awesome, and the downhill is hilarious on the XC bike
If you haven't been before you are in for a treat. Don't even think about the big dipper.. just close your eyes till the bottom.
Lorrie - I Might well by up for some carpool action.. I'll let you know closer to the time...
Dylan
Ourimbah sounds good - looking forward to it.
There is a helmet cam video of the rollercoaster track at Ourimbah on trailflix.

Happiness is a warm shock.
Whats more important, I wonder, Daughters swimming classes or the sweet, sweet single trails of Ourimbah.
Im a maybe.
String
Douse her with the hose (water from the tanks of course) before you go or when you get back... give her the option and you can still be seen as 'flexible'!
¡ Caramba Ourimbah! - here we come!
If anyone needs a ride from the Chatswood / Lindfield area - we have 1 or 2 spaces left on the rack & car to head up to the sweet single track of ¡Ourimbah!. We are leaving from the Chatswood area 7 AM.
Now that we have to burn through a tank of fuel to get to a nice "legal" track, it makes sense to pool... (listen up NPWS!)
Reply or contact me if you need/like a ride - see profile for contact details...

Hi Hans, thanks for the offer but I am already car pooling with Gary. See you in the morning.
Hi Hans
I might well be in need of a lift, I'll give you a call tonight when I know for sure.
Cheers,
Dylan
Hi Hans.
I managed to get the car so wont need a lift, thanks anyway.
See you tomorrow.
If I'm not there by 8:30, just go ahead.
Cheers,
Leo.
Today’s ride was so sweet. 2 laps of the XC loop and then rode to the top of the downhill and gave that ago. The downhill was certainly a challenge. Definitely going back.

Happiness is a warm shock (and a working fork)
The Dh has been made a little easier and straighter of late but still a heap of fun
I'm still laughing about that multiple pile up on the downhill.. Gary's OTB was pure art!
Great ride yesterday, thanks Brian for organising and Dylan for guiding.
Your patience was much appreciated, a month off the bike had left me in a sad state fitness wise.
The track was such a blast to ride, nearly worth the blown shock.
