North Gate, Barnet St
I plan to get there a little early and do a spider web sweep on a short section of trail b4 we ride it.
Parking is available either side of the gate on Barnet St, Parking is also available at the Skate park and Glanbrook Shops. This meeting spot is next to a residential area so volume will need to be kept minimal.
This social ride is an open invite so out of towners are welcome.
Ride is as discussed. Approx 15kms taking around 2hrs depending on Chat and regrouping time.
Im limiting the group size to 10 to keep regrouping at a minimal.
If we are feeling well and have time when we are next to the RAAF base. We can add an extension of riding.
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.
Hi - I'm hitting up Wingello on Sunday morning. If I'm completely honest, its gonna be a bit fast for most peoples sunday ride - I dont wanna sound like a @#$% but 20kph is a fair indication of average speed for 3hrs.
I'll ride the red loop twice (the one including the wall) and probably some other bits.
I'm happy to cruise some bits as a group, but there will be sections where I am gonna be gunning it a bit. Probably 2 or 3 x 5-10mins efforts.
If you're keen, it would be great to have some company. If you are worried about pace, flick me a pm.

Mont Training: Hill Repeats at Terrey ... erm ... Hills
Although we don't normally ride this trail on it's own, with a bit of road work it makes a nice loop from Terrey Hills shops (on Booralie Road) then onto Centre Track and back along the road to the shops.
That's the same as the more standard Terrey Hills rides.
After a warmup ride from Terrey Hills Shops to the bottom of Duck Holes we'll be doing:
* four to five x 5 minute seated, low cadence climbing intervals back uphill along Duck Holes with 5 minutes recovery in between
* back to Perimeter and Long possibly with a few diversions to run out the time at endurance pace
This is Session 3 from Mark Fenner's Fitness: Training for Endurance Racing published in June '10's issue of AMB.
If you can't do the full ride time that's OK. The key part is the hill reps and the first hour thereafter.
See ya there
