Dropoff Training + Cascades

When: 
Sunday, 7 December, 2008 - 08:30
Meeting Point: 

Hews Reserve, Belrose

-33.732708,151.216722

OK so Sunday seems to be the preferred day.

We will spend a bit of time at the park having a muck around off the rock. We can then pedal up to Cascades and do the Technical DH single track and then ride back up Heath Track. I will be walking back up as I will take the big bike!

I'll probably take my camera and try and get some pics of drops, crashes etc Smiling

After the ride we can get a bite to eat at the bistro up the road.

Although it is grass I'd recommend you bring some pads if you are not confident on this kind of thing.

Ourimbah Ride

When: 
Sunday, 14 December, 2008 - 10:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Ourimbah State Forest
Meeting Point: 

North End of Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. There's a large-ish parking area here, just off the main sealed road. 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.

-33.682365 151.227937 (Terrey Hills Shops)

fun training ride - i have some (2) "less" fit guys that we have to wait for at the top of hills but may make it that the faster guys go back and ride back up again.

Back at shops after a 17km lap we'll decide whether to add on another lap of Perimeter or add Duck hole & centre tracks. Would like a steady pace -no waiting - should get around in just over an hour.

Terrey Hills

I can't make the Blue Mountains overnighter and I still need to stretch my legs so what I'm planning to do is Duck Holes (then either Waratah or Baine or both) and returning via Centre.

While it is listed as a social ride it will be 30k's plus, so a reasonable level of fitness is required.

*********It's been pouring at Red Hill and around since sundown - I'm pulling the pin because it will be a quagmire will SMS all I that have mobile number for in their profile

Ride Database Entry: 
Terrey Hills / Duffys Forest
Meeting Point: 

Terry Hills Tavern carpark (high side next to bottle shop).

OK... we have worked out with this new course that if we leave around 7:00 and peddle like there is no tomorrow we can get back to the Tavern at around 8:50 ready for a meal, as the food orders stop at 9:00 sharp as the bitch at the counter advised me last week.

Its now all go with the official web site now up check it out here http://solo24hour.com.au/ .

Ok the race is almost upon us and we have quite a bit of nobmob interest and it looks like we should have a large contingent competing and supporting so it should be an awesome weekend. If you are going to enter hopefully you have been training your arse off if not you have a little more time to get organised but definitely not too much so get on that bike and go riding and if you don’t feel like a ride its called training so get out there and do some.
