After not quite adequate training for the Scott in just over two weeks time , i should get to know the trail , and have a little fun around this great place . If you would like to join me , you are welcome to come along . My plan is to ride a couple of numbered laps , stop for a bite another lap and by then the need for lights will be needed for the last slowdown lap from the pavillion to the Observatory and down via the sensational Berm Track , although it may be called the a different name .

If i have any legs on the day i will have a go at The heartbreaker climb

There is also a smaller parking area a little further (400m or so from the road) where the trail splits - this second area is the usual meeting point. If you end up driving up a steep hill you've gone too far.

After struggling though the hills at Mogo last year, I thought better of doing the Angry Doctor this year and just have not done enough prep. Anyhow, for those who are not going here is a good ride we can do.
I would like to do 3 laps, but if there is any demand for the DH we can have a crack at that too and do 2 xc laps.
This will be social, but limited stops, so only intermediate riders please.

We were going up to Terry Hills, but since it's going to be so hot and there's only 2 of us who don't know the tracks, we changed our minds and headed to Manly for an early start.

meet 8:15ish for an 8:30 start.

Feel free to join us - then maybe you can show us the way!

I've finally managed to get another MTB after having a roadie for a few years and it's about time to start exploring the Sydney tracks.
