New Year's Eve ride
Dural St car park, between Dural Lane and Dural St, rear of corner of Dural St and Pacific Highway Hornsby.
The reason for picking this spot to park is to minimise noise impact on neighbours. Please do not park in Quarry Road until we get guidance on what's acceptable/expected from the authorities. The trail is a 2 min ride from this car park.
Planning to do 4 or 5 laps around here on Monday - if you're free and want to try out the newest trail in Sydney then come along! Social pace 
Rydal
The main rd in has been dusty as all get up so in an effort to keep on the good side of the locals it might be best to come in via the showground.
From the highway come into Rydal, cross the train tracks and take a left before the Pub (Showground signposted.)
Go around the top side of the show ground and follow the road around to the left. This will take you around towards the top side of the cemetery. from there a couple of cross rd will bring you back tot he bicentennial trail and thus the car park
We need to do some circle work at Rydal ... can somebody post up where I should head please

Duo Classic
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 Community CPS 50km Duo Classic is in it’s second year running and is a joint initiative of Bec Henderson and Canberra Off Road Cyclists. The 50km mountain bike pairs race will again be held at Kowen Forest, just outside of Canberra. The race will be held on the 19th of January 2013.
Riders enter in teams of 2 but this is not a relay style event like the common endurance events. It’s about you and your teammate working together and having a good time while riding some of the best single tracks that Canberra has to offer.
Someone whinged that there weren't enough rides in the calendar
The ride begins proper at the gate on Grose Road. This is about 3.4km from the junction with the highway and 450m from the junction with Jennings Road (bear left here on the way out). There is 850m of gravel road to drive to the gate.
So I put a ride in the calendar.
Meet at the gate before the trail starts proper. I'll be riding from home so if anyone doesn't know where said gate is I can meet you at Springwood High school (on Grose rd) a little earlier and ride up.
We'll be going for a social lap or two and then maybe a quick lap afterwards.
If it's raining (or has been raining) I won't be there. After the weather we've had this past year I'm sick of being wet and even sicker of washing bikes.
