Sunday morning Ourimbah ride [SUAR]
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.
Sunday morning Ourimbah ride - at a decent time
...organised by our [fast] friends from http://www.shutupandride.net/ [SUAR]

The Oaks Up & Back Plus Extras
Glenbrook station carpark.
This is my semi regular early Saturday morning blue mountains ride.
This ride is the Oaks up and back but with a couple differences.
Red Hill - Super happy fun day v2.0b
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
I'm planning to ride a big loop that covers pretty much everything up there. Starting from the usual meeting point, head over to the down hill track, back up the 4wd track to the top, rim ride, drop zone and whatever else we find whilst there.
This will be a fairly easy paced ride, but probably not suitable for those not comfortable with the rough stuff. Leave the lycra at home and bring the big bike.
AMBC/NoBMoB Skills Day
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.
So... let's try this again!
AMBC NoBMoB only skills day at Ourimbah.
Given the last date filled fast, but then had to be pulled due to conflicts at the course (Ourimbah) this has been moved to the following weekend.
The trainer line up will be:
Adrian Whittaker (xc)
Brad Mertens (xc)
Daniel Chermak (xc)
Susan Beck (chix)
Kim Stokeld (chix)
Andy Couper (dh)
With the above Kim says, "can do up to 30 for the xc, 20 for the chix & 8 for the dh"
See the thread linked above for details of cost.
AMBC Learning to Fly - Introductory DH Clinic (20% Discount Weekend)

Who is this course for?
~ Are you an experienced rider who has tried downhilling & wants to get into something more radical?
~ Do the downhill sections of your favourite trail get your adrenaline pumping?
~ Are you interested in developing more DH and freeride skills?
~ Do you want to ride with other MTB riders at your skill level?
~ Do you want to start going faster downhills and over those drops?
~ This is your first step to ride like Nathan Rennie.
The course
Fun Ourimbah laps
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.
I'm heading up to Ourimbah this Sunday for 4 - 5 hours.
Some fast paced laps, some relaxed laps - hopefully not too much mud.
Recently requested Menai ride
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
A few people recently have expressed interest in riding at Menai, so here it is.
I have no planned route at the moment and I’ll wait and see who comes along before deciding on where to go. However, my plan is to ride for at least three hours.
Pikey's ride (not quite) revisited
Terrey hills tavern
**CHANGE OF PLAN**
As there has been quite a bit of rain in the last 24 hours, the trails I was originally hoping to ride will be a little too damp for a fun ride tonight.
So, off to duckhole and centre track meaning we can be back in time to order food at the tavern instead.
