National Series #3 - Stromlo
Uriarra Road, just up from the Uriarra Road/Coppins Crossing Road turnoff.
Round 3 of the National XC Series is held at Stromlo. I figured its close enough for the Nobmobbers to be interested.
Racaing XC at Stromlo is something else. Sure - riding all the trails in a 24, or at the end of Capital Punishment is good, but imagine hitting the Luge track full gas with fresh legs.....
The XC at National level is not to be feared, just enjoyed. We all spend so much on bikes, kit etc - why not ride with the best in the country - in your own age group?
National Series #4 - Awaba
Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
This is final round of the 2011/12 National XC Series.
Its the first time it will be held at Awaba, and I really want to try and encourage as many of you as possible to give it a crack.
We dont have a proper state series (yet.....) so some might worry that there is a big jump from club level racing up to National level racing.
Far from it.
At National level racing there are age-groups. Its not just A / B / C / D grade. So you can be sure you will be racing people of a similar vintage. That means the track will be clearer for you.
Tathra MTB Enduro
Tathra Country Club, Tathra
If you’re tired of being marooned in bush try a cycling sea-change!
The Tathra MTB Enduro is a community driven MTB event that caters for the whole family. Along with single-track Tathra, has plenty of sun and surf to keep the cheer squad and ‘significant others’ happy. The best news is – the start line is a mere roll from your digs in Tathra!
In 2011, 250 riders lined up for our first race, and we raised over $25,000 for renewable energy projects in the Bega Shire.
BMORC Bash
Glenbrook station carpark.
After being reminded about this on the Wednesday night ride, it's time to put it up for next year to give you all a chance to drag out your secret weapons.
Guidelines are:
1) Bike not to be worth more than $200 new or needs to be over ten years old.
2) No disc brakes.
3) You have to carry it out with you even if it is stuffed.
4) All stacks are your own fault for riding such a heap of S*&t
5) No clipless pedals (unless the bike came with them originally)
6) Must be prepared to have an embarrassing photo taken.
7) Anything else I have missed here....................
Knapsack Reserve Twilight Ride
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
A loop around Knapsack Reserve this week and then back to Glenbrook Park for a byo BBQ.
All welcome!!
Christmas ride
End of White Cross Rd, Winmalee, NSW. There's a small parking area here but it's a standard suburban street so overflow isn't a problem.
We'll most likely head to the Winmalee tavern after the ride.
All welcome.
Glenbrook Night Ride
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
Looks like it will need to be out in the Park if dry.
All welcome!!
Awaba Laps
Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
As discussed here http://nobmob.com/node/32895
The laps will have a break between them but looking at doing the red loop in low 40's at a consistent pace.
Blue Mountains Sunday Early Morning
Glenbrook station carpark.
Ok, last Sunday's ride clearly highlighted Hills as being a limiter in my current performance 
.
So, I have half a thought of trying to go Oaks up and down. This would have the additional advantage of cutting out about an hour of dubious entertainment on the 6.53 train up to Wentworth Falls.
Otherwise it is Andersons& Oaks again. Comments?
