Lets do 2-2.5 hours riding this Saturday at Manly Dam and the surrounding trails. The ride will take in parts of the Dam circuit, the Possum/Kevin Costner single track and the Pipeline fire road. I have ridden this area many times and do the regular Dam circuit (10.5km) in a sub 40 minute time, so I'm looking for experienced riders like myself to join me on this ride.

And for those who may not have heard, I've had an interesting time over the last few months recovering from some health issues.

I've been getting about on the roadie but this will be my first "proper" ride on dirt for about 5 months. It's also a "**** you" to the unimaginative specialist who said "find another sport". Smiling

Pace will be steady. Looking to put some base kilometres in the legs.

Come and say g'day. We haven't had a social ride for awhile

Last year's event was great fun that saw hot temps, an elite rider discovering the joys of social riding and a select few conquering the "Long Trail pinch". Hope you can make the 2016 edition which promises more of the same i.e. a relaxed ride from Terrey Hills shops along Perimeter and Long Trails and back again.

Looking for a moderate intensity spin as I try to rebuild some base fitness after a busy period at work, and some ITB niggles that have been limiting my riding since late April.

I'll be riding out from my place near Frenchs Forest East around 0720, along Forest Way and then MV Road to the meeting point if anyone wants to join for some extra K's on the road.

The plan is meet at the RFS and head down Booralie Rd to enter via the Jap School at Echunga Rd to start with and if the trail is dry enough come back via Nerang Rd.

Alternative starting location to be advised. i.e. Japanese School

Its on again ladies and germs - last year's ride saw sunny skies and lots of smiles (no red mankini's in sight), be a part of it.

A casual ride through Ku Ring Gai national park starting at Terrey Hills and traversing along Perimeter and Long trails and return via some sweet muppety st ives singletrail (see what I did there). An option for either a 22 or 45km round trip is offered, there are always plenty of people doing either distances so you won't be alone whichever distance you choose.
