It's On
Another mid week ride @ Menai
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
Last nights ride was so enjoyable, I’ve decided to do it again next week.
Plan on riding for an hour and a half on the easier trails and I won’t be venturing near the free ride areas, DH, etc. However, it can still be tricky in sections though, but that adds to the fun.
Pace and where we ride will be determined by who turns up, but one things certain, reasonable night riding skills will be needed.
WAGs trundle @ Yellomundee
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.
As discussed, a gentle trundle round the Yellomundee circuit (probably trying to miss the worst of the technical stuff) for relative newbies to get some practice in.
Mountain Madness
Woodford train station car park
Mountain Madness is a long training ride on the tracks at Hazo/Lawson then down St Helenas including the lost world lookout and Bunyan lookout. The pace will be quick as I'm training for the 12 hour. St Helena's is fairly technical and flying down there this morning I had adrenaline flowing out both ears, if your fit, love fast rocky descents and heaps of single track this is for you.
Eye protection is highly recommended and long sleeves/arm warmers will stop a few scratches. It's rocky and fast so check your tyre pressure.
More than likely NOT to be cancelled ride @ Menai
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
Posting this ride with hope there’s not going to be rain between now and Wednesday……..
Plan on riding for an hour to an hour and a half on what has become a regular XC loop for me and I won’t be venturing near the free ride areas, DH, etc. It is tricky in sections in the dark, but that adds to the fun.
Pace will be determined by who turns up and reasonable night riding skills will be needed.

Noob's Ride - Nice Bikes But Unfit!
Corner Burke & Market St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
Hi All,
This is my first time on this site and thought it might be a good place to post a ride meet for next weekend. We've just organised a few friends (5 of us so far) who at least have a bike and decided we'll check out Appin track since most of us are in Campbelltown.
We will have a GPS with us, but someone with knowledge will be awesome to take with us. The more the merrier as well!
Anyways... cheers to us noobs for planning it! lol...
