Early-ish lap of the dam. Normal / social pace - suitable for all.

"Stimulus ride" to stimulate the Northern Beaches' economy!

Create precious jobs and extra revenue for all the Local Bike Shops & doctors / hospitals, by going extra hard and breaking / wearing out lots of expensive parts for immediate replacement ($$$). Go hard, spend hard! Do it for Australia!

(Moved to an earlier date of Saturday the 7th Feb - to stimulate sooner!)


Our treasury boss says: "I want to stimulate you!"

Lets get down to Canberra for a weekend of exploration and training.
Having not been to Sparrow Hill I'd like to get down for an exploratory ride prior to the Mont and of course log a number of kays training.

Sparrow Hill Saturday
Majura or Stromlo or other Sunday

I'd expect it to be a fairly long days but with breaks here and there for food and water refils. Primarily this is a training ride but I would expect a fair amount of social activity as well.

I've been asked to con some suckers talk some willing volunteers into helping out with some track building at Del Rio, in preparation for the Sydney 24.

If you ride trails loads but don't ever build here's your chance to learn all about it and help out.

Show up for the weekend (see Saturday's meeting) or just one day, I believe free camping at Del Rio is on offer for helpers. They have a bar and pool to cool down in later. There might be BBQ food on offer too, but am not sure - best bring some food just in case!

I can't make the Wednesday ride and I have just fitted a new bottom bracket & crank that needs testing before the Wisemans Ferry fun on Sunday. I have posted this as a training ride as I intend to do this with minimal stops. I suggest you will need lights for this in case we get held up on the trail.

The usual Wednesday night ride at Terrey Hills. Given the rain it'll be best to stick to Duck Holes and Centre tracks before heading back to the Tavern for a beer!

Let's try to park on the street this time to avoid any more hassles with the pub's management.
