WSMTB XC Club Race - Round 2
Calling all the nobmob roid boy wanna be Wednesday night social racers come out to Yellomundee and have a real race.
Ok so if your wondering what one of these is like theres really only one word for it and thats FUN. Unlike the bigger races you dont blow a whole weekend Yellomundee is a sweet track with great flowing single track and some nice little technical sections to keep you honest its a short and sweet race that is only as hard as you make it.
We had half a dozen nobmobers at round one surley we can get some more or are you all too soft.
Sparrow Hill Training 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.
The Defence MTBers in Canberra have a regular Tue nite ride that swaps between Stromlo, Jerra, Majura, Urban, Bruce and O'Conner Ridge, Kowen and Sparrow Hill. This is a last hit out before the Mont and anyone from Canberra, Sysdney and NOMOB is welcome to join us.

Final Mont training ride @ Ourimbah!
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.
Last chance to practise some switchback climbs before the Mont 24 hrs.
This is a training ride with min 2 or 3 laps. The Ourimbah track is most representative of the Sparrow Hill 18 km's loop - with plenty of sniggle/switchback climbs, hardpack soil etc.
See you there!
Cheers, Hans

red hill and oxford falls
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
plan is to do red hill, some technical sections, then head down to the parkway near the meat works, ride the road up to morgan road, then the slippery dip through to gutter ball and then down to deep creek, back to cromer road via bike track around the lake ( long way via jamison park ) back up red hill to the start point.
should be about 30K and about 3 hours, so its not a flat out pace but bring your sports drinks 
Training ride @ Terrey Hills
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Training ride for the upcoming Mont '09 race, but anyone would like to tag along... you are most welcome.
We are riding Perimeter & Long trail, possibly Duckholes & Centre, Salavation, Towlers. ~ 35 K's.
Training pace, but will split into 2 (slower/faster) groups if required.
Leaving from Terrey Hills at 7-30am sharp! See you there.
Cheers, Hans

Remember when?
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Remember when nobmob rides were social?
Remember when we stopped for a beer at the look out?
Remember when we could take the mickey out of ourselves or others without being censored?
Remember when we waited for the slowest rider at regular intervals?
Remember when we had a chat and a laugh along the way because it was about the journey not the destination?
Remember when we were part of community and we all had a say what happened?
Remember the time we were out till after 11 because we did wait for the slowest?
No, well nows your chance to find out.
Manly Dam After Dark – Blondies SOCIAL ride...
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
This is a social ride which means we will be re-grouping at all our regular spots SOOO, if you want to race around doing a ‘hot lap’, fancy doing a ‘training ride’ or don’t want to stop and wait for everyone else then this is NOT the ride for you!
This ride is a social ride – which means riding as a group and not losing anyone or leaving anyone behind.
This also means bringing a beer or preferred bevy for a chat after the ride – if you don’t want to do that either then this isn’t the ride for you
