Oxford Falls Night Ride - Cancelled!

Guessing cross country course and wherever else we get lost!
Mildred is ill (see below). Sorry, we're not going but don't let that stop anyone else
Terry Hills Night Ride
In the carpark of the
Terrey Hills Tavern & Caley's Grill
2 Aumuna Road
Terrey Hills NSW 2084

Hi,
Bring on the regular night ride! Get rid of the mid week stresses.. It does for me... don't know about anyone else
For those of you who don't know about the ride read on, for those of you that do ....well its the same details:
We generally do about 27kms about 16-18km/hr, the firetrail is fairly flat and there are some cunning sand patches in there. Last week there was about 10 of us out there and even one guy on a DH rig (nice!) Afterwards we usually hang out at the pub for a while... If you're last we won't leave you behind.

Preview to Mid Mountain Tour
Hazelbrook Station
Well I wanted to do the Oaks before Andrew's night ride there. Also I can't do Carlgroover's Mid Mountain tour on Aug 12 as I have the City 2 Surf.
I will be catching the 9:23 train from Glenbrook up to Hazelbrook. If this is too late then I can move the start time forward.
We'll be doing some singletrack and then the Oaks.
Manly Dam - 2 laps
Reasonable pace, all welcome but first timers will struggle to keep up.
Not racing, if you're chasing the Hot Lap then we'll let you through.
2 laps, Bantry Bay loop included.
Also posted on Farkin.
Looking to make this a semi-regular event.
XC meets DH @ Oxford Falls
Morgan Road, Belrose. At the second 90 degree right hand bend in the road. There's an area just before you can park and a firetrail heading off to the left.
I know the boys who had a day last week on the big bikes would like to go back to oxford falls downhill. I thought it would be good to organise a ride for the people who fancied a cross country blast around the, well? Cross country course! Then meet up with the guys on the other ride(and by guys I mean men and women) for some photo ops and a bit of a laugh down the downhill course. I'll even lend my bike to anyone who wants a blast!
Cascades Night Ride - Cancelled
Acron val entry, Douglas Avenue
THIS RIDE IS NOW CANCELLED, unless someone else wants to take up the thread. Sorry guys and gals, too much I should be doing before my boys Baptism this weekend.
For those that can't make Wednesday night, or those that want a change from TH.
Start near the oval, road around to the entry behind the houses onto Ridge track, DOWN Quarry, turn left upto the power station, one or two laps of the sniggle, back down the FT, Lower Cambourne then Cascades back to the cars. Depending who is there we may add a little to this.
Oaks at night with anderson's beforehand - cancelled
Due to injuries and equipment malfunctions this ride is postponed. Although I'm up for a local ride in the arvo.
Hi All,
That ride diary is very full! So I'd better post this one for the diaries...
The aim is to hit the oaks / helipad at dusk. Therefore one lot of us will probably start the Anderson's track about a few hours beforehand and if you want to we can meet up with you at Woodford station and then do the oaks. Well get some proper times up closer to the date
Good lights are essential.

Night ride at Terry Hills or Lane Cove ... now TH
Terry Hills Tavern
*** Update 30/7 ***
Just had a fun weekend of moving house and no play. I haven't had a chance to go back to Lane Cove - I actually used to do this track heaps before I met the NoBMob. So we will do Terry Hills and then I'll promise to do Lane Cove this sunday. If you're interested in a Sat 4th or Sun 5th Aug morning tour let me know All I wanted to do was to check out the end of one section of this track to see that the fallen trees were removed cause without this section it's an ordinary trail.
Hi Everyone,
Mooney Mooney Creek
Given news of Old Pacific Highway closure... Instead of heading down there, take the Peats Ridge Road exit from the freeway. Head left up Peats Ridge Road for a few Ks then right along Brieses Road and meet at the end.
Have heard good things about this ride and would like to check it out. Any one keen to play tour guide??
Meeting time can be changed if it doesn't suit the majority.
Hope to see you there
Mid mountain tour
Woodford train station on the south side, funnily enough called Railway parade
There is a few tracks in this area that any warm blooded Mtbiker should enjoy, ranging from Woodford to Lawson there is some fun/steep fire roads including Terrace falls that most won't have ridden and a fair bit of exciting single track. The ride is mostly XC style rather than all mountain so expert bike skills are not required but up the pace a little and it's a lot of fun.
The ride time is very flexible as we won't be too far from a train station most of the time and I'll ride all day for those that wish to
See you there John
