It's On
Red Hill - Advanced Silly Buggers
Been dry enough for a while, time for fun. 
Cascades night ride
Carrying on from last Wednesday... From Wyatt Ave, aiming to go down Heath Track (missing the now blocked little bit of single track) all the way to the bottom, through the creek and up Quarry climb, round the top or ridge top track, along the road (hope that's OK at night) to the start of Cascades track, down there with the great water bars and then up the other side to the start. Would be nice to keep a fairly decent pace, but not after setting an records.
WWS 2008 - Round 4 @ Killy
HMBA Killingworth Track (click for directions). The map/directions link below is to the turnoff on Killingworth Road just 500m or so away.
This race is now confirmed to be at Killy, not Awaba.
Never mind, I hear the track is a blast and know we have a few teams out there now.
It's your usual 8 hour format and not too far to drive so come on up!
See http://brightorangeevents.com/ and follow the BMC WWS 08 links.
Ride of Silence
Hyde Park, Sydney City
This isn't an off road ride but it may be of interest to some here.
See http://www.rideofsilence.org/ and http://www.sydneycyclist.com/forum/topic/show?id...
Cyclists will take to the roads in a silent procession to honor cyclists who have been killed or injured while cycling on public roadways. Although cyclists have a legal right to share the road with motorists, the motoring public often isn't aware of these rights, and sometimes not aware of the cyclists themselves.
