red hill and oxford falls
Was looking for some longer rides without driving hours to get there and last weekend did a link of red hill and oxford falls. Started at red hill, down to the parkway just before the meat works and then up to morgan road, the slippery dip trail through gutter and back to red hill via the lake ( longer way via the parkway/narrabeen bridge ), was about 30K or so with a fair bit of uphill.. thinking of doing the same again this Sunday morning.
Anyone else up for a longer local ride ( rather than just laps of X ) and have any alternate ideas for linking up local trails?
cheers

sounds good....what time are you getting up there on Sunday morning?
was thinking about 730am at Lady Penryhn Drive
Hopefully you know your way around as i have only been twice to Red Hill?
I know it very well, if your in then there's three of us.
Count me in then..... i will see you there 7:30am. I will be in a silver SS ute
Deciding on which tyres to run. Kenda small block eight's (2.1) or Specialized Captain Control(2.2) on a Stumpjumper Pro ?
we will be at the gate at the start of the dirt road.
no idea about tyres, but i have kenda nevagal 2.3 on the back and a maxxis monorail 2.1 on the front and they seem fine to me.
Cool... see you tomorrow at the gate
Got another mate coming tomorrow now. Will be two of us meeting up with you!
Hey Dave
If you want to link up trails this is a good one I've been doing in recent months

Around the 5hr mark with a decent 30min lunch break at the end Long Trail.
