Brisbane Water NP

When: 
Saturday, 22 September, 2007 - 08:30

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Meeting Point: 

Woy Woy Road, Brisbane Water National Park. Tunnel Track trail head.

Note the move to 8:30am.

Time for a bit of exploration. Brisbane Water National Park has loads of fire trail at least marked on the map. Time to take a look-see.

Tunnel Track seems to start about half way into the park so is probably as good a place as any to meet.

Will try and figure out a decent route, but as usual for an exploration there'll be a lot of playing things by ear.

As this is an exploration don't come if being lost worries you and allow food/water/time for at least 50Km of riding over several hours.

OK this is a CTMBC ride but open to everyone (you'll need to sign the disclaimer but there are no entry fees). It is part of the Celebrations of the 175 anniversary of the opening of Victoria Pass.

There will be plenty of things to do and see besides the ride, including Historical re-enactments at both Mt Victoria and Heartly Historic village so use it as an excuse to bring to family/better half up to the mountains for a bit of culture (the duck off for a ride while they are not looking).

East Ferry car park - I'll be in the green Freelander.

Planning to go up Commission Track, up through Ten Mile Hollow to the top end of GNR, then back down GNR's rock gardens and Shepherds Gully. Should be around 45 kms

All welcome, see it as mainly a training ride so will be trying to keep a reasonably constant pace if my old legs are up to it!!

Wingello Fling Reccy - 9AM!

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Wingello State Forest
Meeting Point: 

4Km SW of Wingello village on Caoura Rd there's a small base camp within the forest - seems as good a place as any.

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Given there's a ride in Canberra the day (& night?) before it would be rude not to stop at Wingello on way back, don't you think?

Especially given the Fling will be hosted here the following month.

11am meet sets a 9am departure from Canberra, or... and I'll just put this one out there... there's an option of camping at Wingello and moving that 11am to much earlier. OK, or... we could drive up to Bundanoon the night before also - maybe even better idea.

Hey you!

You look like you need a practice ride around Majura Pines before completing The Mont 24hr. Smiling So here you go...

This will be especially useful for those that have never been to Majura before. This will let you get used to the feel of the place. And with good reason too... Majura is totally awesome!! Laughing out loud It will take some serious discipline on race day to not stop on your lap and do the jumps and roll offs.

I know the boys who had a day last week on the big bikes would like to go back to oxford falls downhill. I thought it would be good to organise a ride for the people who fancied a cross country blast around the, well? Cross country course! Then meet up with the guys on the other ride(and by guys I mean men and women) for some photo ops and a bit of a laugh down the downhill course. I'll even lend my bike to anyone who wants a blast!
