Meeting at the station carpark... riding up and down the Oaks

Good climbs to test your legs and lungs, finished by a long and fast singletrack(and a bit of road climbing)
WSMTB XC Championships 2014
There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.
All riders are welcome to race in the WSMTB Club Championship XC race on Sunday 26 October at Yellomundee Regional Park. The Seniors and U15s race at 9.30am, the U13s (boys & girls) race at 9am, and the swarm of U10s have their event at 8.30am. Rego is from 8am to 8.50am sharp so that we can start the U13 racing promptly at 9am.
All registered riders will receive a free BBQ voucher for a yummy sausage sandwich and soft drink provided by our friends from Yarramundi RFB (who have donated the Club Champions Shield!).
Holiday Monday social ride
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
Going to explore around Red Hill, all skill / fitness levels are welcome, the more the merrier
Oaks Up and Back
Glenbrook station carpark.
Up and back for some training.
While only 50-odd kms, I found this quite a challenging ride last time. Be sure to bring enough food and fluids for the duration.
Oaks up and down Saturday
Glenbrook station carpark.
Thinking of doing the oaks tomorrow morning. Can go a bit earlier if preferred.
It'll be my first time there in many many years.

Kinross weekend away
The city of Orange is around 4 hrs from Sydney and 3 hrs from Canberra. Kinross State Forest is situated on the northeast edge of town, a 10 minute drive or 20 minute ride from the Orange town centre.
Meet at the Bulgas Road carpark, Western edge of the forest.
Drive out from Orange on the Ophir Rd, before you reach the rubbish tip, turn right onto Bulgas Rd. Follow this about 2km to the forest (the road turns to gravel).
Note that the 'Directions there' google maps link below may not give the best route/destination. It seems that google maps ignores Bulgas Rd when selecting a route and gives the next closest spot. The 'Meeting point' link should be correct.
I need to take a trip to Orange on the weekend on family business, so thought I'd visit the renowned Kinross trails and do a couple of laps (40km?)
If anyone from northern Sydney would like to tag along I'm happy to provide a lift, although Saturday afternoon I need to spend doing some boring stuff in town (assess a house for renovations). Can leave either Friday night or early Saturday.
Heading home straight after post ride tank refill (aka lunch).
Let me know preferences so I can make motel bookings earlier rather than later by Wednesday PM.
