A tour of the hill for anyone that's up for it.

Its not a Downhill ride, nor is it an XC ride.. lets just call it a technical ride

Planning about a 15K ride, no real need for armor, I don't wear it (famous last words?) but of course your more than welcome to wear it as there will be plenty of opportunities to go crazy ( if your into that kinda thang ).. you just gotta be prepared to wear it for some uphill as well.

Given it's likely the Dam won't be up to much even if it is open, I'm going to head to Appin as it normally drains better. Planning on doing a few laps at a reasonable pace but will wait for anyone if needed (hopefully they'll wait for me too).

If you fancy joining let me know.

I have met Nate, but am yet to meet the others and want to do a meet and greet and a bit of a training ride. All who want to join us are more than welcome if this time slot suits you. Lights will probably not be necessary, but a good idea.
Should be pretty casual, but not too much stopping. Not sure how fit the others in my team are really.

I am planning to ride in the area of lake parramata sometime after midday. Not too late as to avoid peak hour on the way back home. I am easy on the time as long as i can come back before 5pm.

For some reason i could not find the Parramat Park ride in the database to set the meeting point. Was it deleted?

EDITED 2/2 9AM: I will not check this again until tonight. If someone wants to come give a ring.

This is social but pace will be moderate. I haven't ridden for a few weeks so will be quite unfit, but I'd like to try to get two laps in within the 2 hours I've alotted. However, I have a hard deadline to complete the ride by 08:30.

If I don't get to the start of the second lap within the hour, I'll probably swing over to Perimiter and do a partial out-and-back to use up the remaining time.

Looking at doing approx 20km it wont be a race just a social ride and a bit of fun, I have no problem stopping at any interesting sections and playing.
