SRAM Singletrack Mind Series Round 1
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.
The SRAM Singletrack Mind Series features six mountain bike endurance events, of 7 or 8 hours duration. They will take you to six different locations in NSW and ACT, each one renowned for its flowing singletrack and fun factor.
Central West Off-Road Bicycle Club have been instrumental in developing a large network of trails close to Orange in Kinross State Forest. They'll be providing a purpose-built enduro loop for the race, and with the wide range of options for accommodation and gourmet food in Orange, this is an event not to be missed!
Experimental: Great North Road Early Sunday morning ride.
Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.
Hi,
keen to do something different. I have never been on the GNR before, but have a GPS file/ description which indicates that a great loop ride of somewhat just over 40km can be had in the area. Other accounts indicated that it drains well.
So, if you want to experiment together with me, sign up!
If you know the area, you can still join, but don't tell the group. 
You would not want to loose out an opportunity on watching the rest of the group to get lost, right!
Cheers,
Volker
Glenbrook and Wentworth Falls loop, via Oaks, Ingar, Andersons and Oaks again
Glenbrook station carpark.
Hi All.
Getting ready for the Capital Punishment (17th March), and it's overdue for some serious time spent off-road.
This will be a voyage of the great unknown for this wannabe racer. I've only done this ride one-way, and then they were the easy option; Wentworth down to Glenbrook.
This time it's a climb up to Wentworth via Ingar , then back down again via Andersons to Glenbrook. (With quite a bit more 'climbs up' thrown in between!)
Appin XC track maintenance
North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.
Bring your own tools if possible. I'll try to ge some from WMBC as well. We'll probably be cleaning up the drainage on the second half of the track - from the roll down/bridge back to the carpark. If we get enough people it would be nice to send off one team/pair to do the short reroute on the descent to the bridge while the rest work on the drains. Don't forget sunscreen, gloves and plenty of water.
Oaks up and back
Car park at Glenbrook Railway station
I have allowed 4 hours but we should get it done quicker if we don't get any mechanical issues

Escape the rain at Wingello
4Km SW of Wingello village on Caoura Rd there's a small base camp within the forest - seems as good a place as any.
I'll be going here instead of Andersons. I will be leaving around 7am from Epping area. If anyone wants a lift PM me and we'll see what can be organised. Spare roof rack with 9mm QR fitting plus bike rack for 2. I already have one person coming with me but room for 2 more at a stretch. Plan is to get there around 9am do a loop, have a break, do another loop, have a break, do another loop and come home. Never ridden there before and looking at the BOM site has had no where near as much rain as Sydney.
