It's On
Yellomundee Track Work - Sat 6th 8:30am
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.
I am creating this calendar entry on behalf of the WSMTB club. I am not personally hosting this event.
We will be doing some track maintenance work out there this Saturday, 6 Oct from 8.30am to lunch (BBQ by WSMTB). All welcome! If everyone did a day per year - then our MTB tracks around Sydney would be even better. Improvements and repairs just don't happen by magic. Let me know if you can come and help.

Red Hill : Back in the saddle
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
Heya Guys,
It has been a very long time since I was last on the site and an equally long time since I was last on the bike. I will be heading up to Red Hill on Saturday morning for my first decent ride in almost a year. Given my current fitness, I'll be riding at a very casual pace and probably stopping regularly for breathers.
If anyone is up for a relaxed ride on the Hill, I'd love to see you there.
Cheers,
Scott.

Wingello Ride - FAST
4Km SW of Wingello village on Caoura Rd there's a small base camp within the forest - seems as good a place as any.
Hi all.
I want to post this ride because I'm always keen on meeting new people, and (I hate saying this) people often ask me (or Jenny) for advice at races when we really dont have time to talk, so this is a good chance.
However - this wont be a slow ride. Its probably race pace for most people (how do you say that without sounding arrogant?!?!?!?)
Myself and Jenny (Fay) will be heading to Wingello on Sunday morning for a 4 hr ride.
For more clarity, or a benchmark, she rode 4.28 at Convict this year, and I rode 4.02 (ish)...
