This is a trail maintenance day at Royal National Park.

If you are interested in helping out please contact the rangers via email for more details and to confirm your attendance:
Spring Fat Tyre Festival 2009
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.
You know the drill... come race on the sweet Ourimbah single track.

After struggling though the hills at Mogo last year, I thought better of doing the Angry Doctor this year and just have not done enough prep. Anyhow, for those who are not going here is a good ride we can do.
I would like to do 3 laps, but if there is any demand for the DH we can have a crack at that too and do 2 xc laps.
This will be social, but limited stops, so only intermediate riders please.
Manly Dam - was Perimeter & Long
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
We were going up to Terry Hills, but since it's going to be so hot and there's only 2 of us who don't know the tracks, we changed our minds and headed to Manly for an early start.
meet 8:15ish for an 8:30 start.
Feel free to join us - then maybe you can show us the way!
I've finally managed to get another MTB after having a roadie for a few years and it's about time to start exploring the Sydney tracks.
Del Rio "24 hour track" work day and ride

Hi guys,
Mt York
Mt York Road, in Mount Victoria. Possibly the lookout car park at the end, though it's not too big if lots turn up. Otherwise, the petrol station back at the highway.

short plan is
down coxs, up lawsons long alley
down lockyers, around Hartley Vale, up Berghoffers
lots of stopping, pics, water, huffing and puffing.

Menai Single Track
Lucas Heights Community School, 132 Old Illawarra Road. Barden Ridge
The ride will be predominantly single track at a medium pace. It will take in some technical climbs, technical descents. flowing single track and a visit to both of the "North Shore" areas. The free ride areas consist of just about everything from small drops and gaps to large drops and gaps and of course some great berms. We will have a couple of runs at the two different areas and then move onto more single track. This ride is probably best suited to riders who have an intermediate skill level.
Off to Appin again
North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.
Will be heading down to Appin again this Saturday for 2 - 3 laps. Will be there about 8.30am but may be a little late if I encounter any traffic. If any one fancies joining me let me know, I'll be glad of the company.
Will most likely be taking the singlespeed hardtail out so it won't be fast laps but I'm aiming to do a reasonable pace.
UPDATE: Time now updated to 8.30am as 8.16 seemed a bit to fussy. Not sure what happened there.
Cheers
Dave
Tour de Central Coast
Fountain plaza. Erina nsw. corner of central coast highway (entrance road) and Karalta road
Hopefully proposed day suits... such a busy race scene at the moment.
There are lots of look outs to check out so the ride can seem quite sociable, I'm happy to start at what ever time suits who
is coming up to the coast.
It's at least 80km and not many safe spots to top up for water so bring enough to get ya thru it.
Any questions just ask.
chops.
