CORC Round 2 Majura Pines
Majura Pine Forest, off Majura Road.
If you have always wanted to race Majura Pines and not have to do it for 24 hours solo,now is the time ! Round two of the Corc racing season and it is lots of fun , race hard but finish with a smile on your face . I usually find a nice cafe afterwards to contemplate the drive home ,and laugh at my abysmal performance in the race ..... ok not really but its heaps of fun all the same Give it a go .... you know you want to !! and the cold May Canberra weather will toughen you up !!!! You may even have to dodge the odd roo during the race as well
Times
fun only Newbies/Lurkers SOCIAL ride
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
This is a Thank God Training is Over for Dirtworks fun social ride which will be at a friendly pace with stops and a meal break at the end of the Long Trail
Right now I am tired so can’t think of lots of nice friendly chatty things to say to all you nooobs and lurkers other than you are welcome to come along with or without your own mates, girlfriends, wives, husbands or boyfriends as long as you bring you sense of humour
Depending on who comes along I may incorporate some games into this ride to ensure you all have fun and don’t hooooon around...
MEEE
Last Chance Distance Ride for DW
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
As I missed riding last weekend I need to get a decent distance in before DW. So I'm planning on doing around 50km to fire the legs up and feel a bit better for next Sunday (althougn I'm doing the 100km so will have to wing the 2nd half!).
Plan is to do Centre/Duckholes or whatever and then a few trails accessed off the road into Ku-ring-ai. Then maybe Perimeter/Long depending on how I feel.
Pace will not be quick but I don't plan on larking about
Open to all and somebody with a bit more familiarity of the trails would be most welcome.

4 laps of Appin and a cuppa
Corner Burke & Market St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
For those not going to the Dirtworks or those that want some fun before putting there body through some punishment the following day, I'm planning on doing 4 laps of the standard XC loop.
I expect to do 2 laps, stop on the way have some fun on some of the trickier stuff if people want and then after a break at the cars, go out and do 1 or 2 more laps.
I'm going to bring my small camp stove, water, a kettle, etc, along with some tea and coffee for everyone so we can have a cuppa after the first two laps and then at the end. Just need to bring a cup.
And a bike......

Social Terrey Hills-CANCELLED
Meeting at the terrey hills tavern carpark.
The idea is to do duckholes and centre at a social pace as they will be the driest and if everything goes according to plan we will finish at the tavern for dinner and a beer after the ride
Its raining in terrey hills and looks like its only going to get worse, so Im calling the ride off
Sparrow Hill and Stromlo Blow the Cobwebs off ride
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 trying to revisit the Mont course , if i dont get lost .....18 k'S of sweet single track if not just ride / explore the best trails around for an hour or two or three.... after this i will need to feed ...Gluten free red rooster fills the belly here
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
Manly Sunday Laps
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
Havent ridden Manly for a while so its time to go back.
Looking to do two maybe three laps of the standard route at a fairly relaxed pace.
This is not a training ride so will stop here and there for a bit of a play maybe.
