Greetings!!

I will be riding the downhill / freeride trails at Oxford Falls on Saturday morning. Will look to do a few hours worth. Anyone interested is more than welcome to come along. I am doing my best to ensure there will be at least one shuttling vehicle available. I will know more on that over the next couple of days.

These trails are mainly for the skilled, the brave, or just plain stupid. Probably not suited to a noob rider. Having said that, some of the trail branches are quite accessible to a stock XC bike so if you are interested in learning, do come along.

Ride Database Entry: 
Terrey Hills / Duffys Forest
Meeting Point: 

Terrey Hills Tavern Car Park

Can't do Thursday, but still would want to get out this week. I was thinking about Duck Holes, Center Track and then maybe knit some additional k's on Perimeter and maybe even Long Trail into it. Not sure about all the track names, let me know if I am talking complete nonsense Smiling. Ah sure, quick beer afterwards in the Tavern, as well.

Any buyers for Wednesday night? All type of riders welcome. If two times Terrey Hills in one week is too much, I would also be prepared to swap over to Manly Dam.

Let me know, cheers,
Volker
