You are here
It's On
Sparrow Hill and Stromlo Ride hard and keep warm
Coming from Sydney, drive into Queenbeyan, turn left at the roundabout where Red Rooster is and stay on this road for about 11km. Park on the side of the road where the gate is. For better directions try this link CORC: Events: Race Venues.
I will be blindly following the red or blue arrows around untill i get tired of the best singletrack around , if i dont get lost .....
And all going well scoot off to Stromlo for a hot lap of the Std XC Course ( well not that hot at 45-47 min night laps for me ) If there is anyone here to keep me company i could be convinced to explore some more but as the place feels to me like Wolf Creek at night, on my own i only have the courage to bolt around one time
I do have to work the next day but am planning to run around Bermagui MTB park the next night and all are welcome also
Oxford Falls Fun
Morgan Road, Belrose. At the second 90 degree right hand bend in the road. There's an area just before you can park and a firetrail heading off to the left.
Wanting to get back to some fun riding now that all the big races are over for a little while, the idea was to ride the DH tracks & ease back into some DH riding.
There are quite a few trails to choose from to cover a wide range of abilities although you will require reasonable bike skills. This ride is NOT for new riders!
If you feel like you need your armour bring it along & please know your own abilities.
Everyone rides at their own risk.
Hope to see some of you there 
Ourimbah cross country race round 4
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.
The Ourimbah cross country track is very popular with local riders and a growing number of riders from Sydney and Newcastle areas. The track is usually set between 7 and 9 kilometers for club events but can be shortened to 5 Kilometers and extended to 12 kilometers to suit conditions.
This years Club Championship Series will be run over 10 rounds and for the first time CCOMTB is awarding prizes to 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each XC category as follows:
1st place will receive $15 off entry for the next round.
2nd place will receive $10 off entry for the next round.

Rotorua, some of the BEST singletrack in the world
Rotorua Airport
The plan is to spend in and around Rotorua NZ riding some of the best trails in the world....
We would be looking at spending a week there riding/eating/drinking and having a good time.
Well I have been thinking about doing this trip for a while and opening it up to nobmob
So after having a chat with AIR NZ to organise a group discount, which they didnt offer I have decided I would organise the in NZ part of the trip.
You will need to book and pay for your own flights to NZ,Rotorua.
What I will organise:
AMBC Trailbreakers - Intermediate XC Clinic
Manly Vale Public School, Sunshine St, Manly Vale
Who is this course for?
~ Do you have confidence on easier trails but would like the skills to get out on more technical and difficult sections?
~ Would you like the opportunity to learn how to tackle those technical sections you always wanted to have a go at?
~ Do you want to ride with other MTB riders at your skill level?
~ Do you want to start going faster?
~ Do you want to learn how to get into XC, enduro and adventure racing events?
The course
Early social lap of the Dam
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
Those who didn't make DW that feel like a social ride - no great pace but not too many stops
Woodford to Glenbrook Classic
Rego @ Woodford Firestation
The Classic is on again! This year's NRMA CareFlight Woodford to Glenbrook Classic will again attract in excess of 1000 entrants to run or ride the Oaks Fire Trail through the beautiful Blue Mountains National Park from the town of Woodford down to the Euroka Clearing near Glenbrook.
Covering 25km of undulating bushland, the trail is incredibly scenic and a must for keen mountain bikers and trail runners. Participants are supported the full length of the track by Rural Fire Service crews stationed along the way.
