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.

Heading down to Wingello for the weekend in preparation for a couple of upcoming rides. Going to make a weekend out of and bring the tent for a spot of camping.

Planning on riding both days, the pace won't be super-fast.

Feel free to come along for either or both days.
Riding on Day 2 will start a little earlier. (Probably 8am'ish)

I will also be bringing my GF as she is keen to ride some of the other trails around the place, so consider this a WAG friendly weekend of riding out of the city.

As discussed... night ride somewhere a little different.

I'm thinking a loop of the sniggle, down Heath, up Quarry, over to St Ives Oval, round the back of the Gun Club then back down Quarry to complete the 4 gates circuit. Maybe duplicate the climb up to Acron or do some other kind of repeats depending on timing and how we all feel.

It's on all week, but I'll be there for the weekend, expecting to go down on Friday afternoon back Sunday evenng after the presentations.
Will take the bike and do a couple of rides too, although a bit early to confirm exactly where, but count on it being around the course where possible. Also a chance to ride some of the circuit that'll be used for the Scott 24. There's a ride posted already out at Majura on Saturday morning by Jeeten [ http://nobmob.com/node/9937 ].
