The course
Late Notice Terrey Hills Ride
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Just a cruise down Duckholes and back up centre. The more the merrier. Don't forget your lights!
Manly Dam Night ride
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I'm trying to get in a bit of night riding before the CORC24, and with the weather over the weekend it hasn't worked.
If the rain keeps up, I don't want to go out and chop up the tracks, and wet+dark is not a good combo...
However, the strong wind on Monday afternoon and night should help to dry it out a bit.
This is a training ride for experienced riders, but i'm hoping there may at least one other who is interested.
If the weather is questionable during the day and you are keen, PM me in the afternoon, and I may head over to garrigal or terry hills instead.

Cascades - 'After Work ride'
Corner of Elm and Ralston Ave
Keen to get back to Cascades - all welcome, it's been a while so if any veterans or GPS enabled bods want to come along then even better!
pre SOCIAL Night Ride Terrey Hills
Terrey Hills Tavern
Duck Hole and Centre Track to then meet back at the Tavern in time for the Social Ride.
Oaks up and down and St Helena's
Glenbrook station carpark.
Hey,
I need to get some training in for the Half Fling and I gotta figure out how fit I am to see how quick i can go. The aim is to do the oak's up to the top, stopping at the Helipad and then at the gate for water and Guis etc. Come back down and detour via St Helena's I'm hoping I will be fit enough to do the lot at a a good pace.
As always if there are some roidy people there we will split as appropriate.

PS Sorry Rob for putting this on the same day as your ride - I can't find another day that works for me.
Manly Dam - 3 Laps
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
Going to try and make this a weekly MTB hit out, to supplement the road training.
3 laps (non-stop) with maybe a 4th slower lap...
Late Avo Manly DAM
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
1 or 2 laps of Manly Dam without intentional stopping other then tackling/practicing problems.
Ourimbah School Holiday Special
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.
If you're on Holidays this week, head out to Ourimbah for a few fun laps of the XC Course. The track is in great condition at the moment - even after the rain. Will be a very social pace. The Drop is off-limits sorry.
