appin- tour guide needed!
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.
hi,
moderate rider would like to try appin but not too sure of the track layout, ( how easy it is too get lost and such), so if anyone would like to ride and knows the way that would be great, pm or give us a bell!
cheers
another short notice ride

There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.
have never ridden the track before but am heading up for a look around. Hopefully things are a bit drier out there. Would be great if anyone was interested in joining up. Will be looking at a time roughly around 11 to be there so can ride for a couple of hours and get out before traffic sets in.
If keen text matt on 0422920196 or reply here by 9 am

When it rains, it pours, eh?!
This is nothing to do with the Manly Dam debarcle that is ongoing as I write, but have just got word of another very important advocacy meeting from the editor of AMB:
Hi all,
The NPA has called a public meeting next week to outline their arguments against proposals to allow mountain biking in national parks in Sydney's north. We desperately need numbers there! In light of everything that has happened in the past few weeks we need to have a strong presence.

Warringah Council Meeting - Show support with silent protest
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Council Chambers, Civic Centre, 725 Pittwater Road, Dee Why (enter Civic Drive)
While the council meeting is obviously still on, there's no need to go from an MTB point of view as Manly Dam is re-open
Council need to be shown immediately what a mistake has been made, and how many riders are effected by the recent Manly Dam trail closure.
As such it would be a very good idea to show up at this meeting for a silent show of support. Speakers are not allowed at this meeting and rowdy, insulant or other petty behavior would not help our cause one bit.

Please wear your riding gear and helmet so council are sure where your allegiance lies.
Manly Dam - Save the date

I've cancelled this based on the recent posts on the site and to avoid confusion. Cheers, Justin

I think you can guess what this might be about 
It is chance to show council how many riders care about the Manly Dam circuit. The plan is to ride the circuit legally. What this means is that we will set of and ride where we can, walk carrying bikes where we are not allowed to.
Appin Fun - Weather Permitting

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.

Pennant Hills Park
We are a team of 4 who have got together through Nobmob and created a Mont 24 Team.
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.
