OK guys, time for an Oaks adventure. BM Epic and I have been talking about this for a while as there have been some epic group rides on this trail in the past.

There is a train from penrith at 1840, getting into Glenbrook at 1853 and Woodford at 1924. Pace shall be social-ish.

For those training it from Glenbrook, meet at the station carpark.

Pooh!

I had hoped to have time to get over to Yelllomundee this weekend but sadly that isn't going to be the case now.

Instead I'll be having a blast round the usual trails in Terrey Hills (Duck Hole/Center/Perimeter/Long aka. DH+C+P+L).

Pace will depend on who comes along, but am looking to take no more than 2h30 all up no matter what.

Late notice but thought I'd post this in case anyone else is fortunate enough to have the day off. I have not been on the mtb for about a month and haven't ridden any bike for about a week so this won't anything too quick but I do not intend to make many stops and those that I do make hopefully won't be for too long. Not 100% sure of the route as yet but something like http://nobmob.com/node/16497. Time is flexible but would like to give myself enough time to go until I cannot go any more.

Social Sunday @ Yellomundee

When: 
Sunday, 15 August, 2010 - 08:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Yellomundee Regional Park
Meeting Point: 

There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.

-33.663669, 150.656361 (Hawkesbury Rd)

I posted a ride at Ourimbah without checking if there was a race on there which there is, so I thought Yellomundee might be some fun, cause i have not ridden there for a year or so. Lets hope not much rain fall between now and the weekend.
I would like to get 3 laps in (not sure of the distance at the moment). It is social, but not for beginners.
I can offer a lift for one person from around Top Ryde, Homebush area.
Bring some snacks and drinks as we can have a quick pit stop at the cars each time round if need be.

Awaba State Forest
Meeting Point: 

Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.

-33.025069,151.45797

I have two reasons for organising this XC group ride.

1) I let out too much air from my rear shock by accident... I need to borrow someones shock pump. Anyone?
2) Training for the Angry Doctor.

I'm looking at achieving at least 50km of Awaba fun. Nothing too fast or strenuous. I'm not racing, just training. Stretching and eating breaks will be included every lap or two!

Menai not so mad!

Below is a preview, click to read the full post
When: 
Wednesday, 4 August, 2010 - 19:30
Ride Database Entry: 
Menai (Lucas Heights)
Meeting Point: 

OPPOSITE THE ENTRANCE TO ANSTO ON THE NEW ILLAWARRA ROAD, LUCAS HEIGHTS.

Seems just lately everyone is posting "madness" rides, so to be different this is a none madness ride.

This will be a XC type ride where the pace will be brisk and stops will be limited. There will be no North shore action and for once armor is not advised.

However, for those that don't know Menai, there will be technical ups and downs, there are a number of rocky sections and new comers to night riding might find this a bit tough.

Hope to see a few of you there.
