It's on all week, but I'll be there for the weekend, expecting to go down on Friday afternoon back Sunday evenng after the presentations.
Will take the bike and do a couple of rides too, although a bit early to confirm exactly where, but count on it being around the course where possible. Also a chance to ride some of the circuit that'll be used for the Scott 24. There's a ride posted already out at Majura on Saturday morning by Jeeten [ http://nobmob.com/node/9937 ].

Ride Database Entry: 
Menai (Lucas Heights)
Meeting Point: 

By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.

Join me on one of my rare Saturdays off for a jaunt around the Menai trails. We'll ride a loop that is favoured by my good self and is certainly within the scope of most riders.
This is a relaxed paced ride and there will be ample time to practice tricky sections, repeat fun bits and, of course, gas bag.
Even though this as an xc type ride, the wearing of armour is encouraged. Other clothing styles are left up to the individual.
