This will be the classic Oaks route from Woodford to Glenbrook station via the firetrail then single track and then the last technical section at the end but with a twist it will be in the dark. I expect this ride will be a lot of fun especially the single track in the dark.

The pace will be social with a stop or two along the way to wait for straglers.

This clashes with Origin III (which doesn't worry me at all) so all the league lovers better sort their priorities out.

Hi,

How about a new twist on the night ride??? For those of you wanting a firetrail night ride there is one posted on Wednesday, I can't generally make Wednesdays and I have never done the dam in the dark so why not???

If you haven't done the dam before... ever. Its probably worth doing this in the day first before you do it at night however if you are good at mountain biking and never done it you'll be fine!.

We will have a beer somewhere along the trail if it isn't too cold

Just a fun lap of the dam as I haven't been there for simply ages - not doing the hill down to the river (too wet), will cross the Wakehurst and go up that side - no, not into the illegal stuff!
Will be a normal speed ride

Ooooooooooooh, Matron, slap the gloves on and grab the vaseline - this one's gunna hurt!

I did this 100k ride solo at the end of summer and it was a bit of an epic - seeing as I thought it was only 80k's, I ran out of water, and there was a flood on the road at St Albans which forced me to push through 1km of waist deep water. However, it was an awesome day and I'm going to do it again because a0 it was fun and b) it'll be a good indicator of how much more training I need to do for the Angry Doctor.

Duck Hole/Terrey Hills Trail

Hello to anyone that is watching.

I wanted to do a fairly fast but social ride through Terrey Hills this Saturday. Starting at Duckholes and Centre, then work back out towards Perimeter and Long trail, and back to the shops. The choice of track will give somone the ability to bail half way through the ride if need be.

Depending on who is coming along, this should take about 3 hours (or maybe 4 if we don't push a particularly fast pace). Total distance travelled will be about 30km.

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.

I intend on doing Duck Hole + Centre twice or Perimeter + Long + Duck Hole. The intention is to be at a steady pace with minimal stops.

I have never done these at night so I am not sure what we can cover in 2 hours.

Edit: Time change to 7:15pm.

Well to keep Christine's alcohol intake up, I have posted a night ride for Wednesday. The weather has been a bit average the last few days so we may have to ride Duck and Centre which are usually a bit drier.

Way too much rain.....how annoying!
