It's On
Terry Hills (one more time)
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
As Tien deemed Cascades too wet for this Saturday, I have decided to repeat last weeks ride.
Centre (backwards), Waratah, Salvation, Towlers, Elvina, Duck Hole (backwards), then Perimeter/Long tract to complete. Pending how I feel after all that I might go do duckholes/centre one more time as well.
This is a cross-country training ride with moderate speed, with a bit of the black stuff.
Bring plenty of water/food.

EEEK DATE CHANGE!!!!
The trails in this area have a bit of everything and impress all that ride them, there's plenty of fast downhills and wonderful single track with techy bits to keep you on your toes. It's not considered hard but you will need good braking control, I wouldn't recommend this for beginners.

The course
Menai
The lay-by opposite the entrance to ANSTO on the New Illawarra Road.
*PLEASE NOTE THE MEETING LOCATION IS DIFFERENT TO WHERE WE USUALLY MEET*.
Looking to ride for approximately 3 hours on mainly the XC trails around Menai.
As usual will be a moderate pace, with some fast flowing single, XC type technical sections and some tricky climbs. A reasonable to good level of fitness will be needed to complete the 3 hours as the riding at Menai is fairly hard, but there will be a couple of bail out options for those finding it hard going.
