I think you can guess what this might be about
It is chance to show council how many riders care about the Manly Dam circuit. The plan is to ride the circuit legally. What this means is that we will set of and ride where we can, walk carrying bikes where we are not allowed to.

Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Hello, social pace as to run in my brakes. Looking at around 25-28km all up.
See you there

First time out

Bloodwood Road, Fiddletown heads up to the National Park. There's a sharp right bend by Marramarra Ridge Trail, with Coba Point Fire Trail shortly after (the proceeding sharp left). There's parking by either trail which are less than 1km apart, but the area by Coba Point Fire Trail is the go.
Have never ridden this location before so will be at a very social pace just to check it out, probably look at doing around 20 - 25 kms. If no response I will not be there.

Park at the old entrance to Narrabeen Fitness Camp. Be ready to ride. Leave 17.00 Sharp.
If coming from Cromer Connection via garden of Gullies meet at The Sand Pit ( 33°43'32.54"S,151°15'31.62"E) around 17.15-17.30.
THIS RIDE WILL BE CANCELLED IF ITS ABOVE 30' AS PREDICTED! RED HILL GETS VERY HOT! SORRY
Need to be reasonably fit and have at least 1.5 litres of water. There there is no warm up its straight up hill from the start. The first 35 minutes is all climbing. But it is varied and interesting and goes fast. (I've been riding Red Hill for 4 years and know it extremely well.)
I'll be kind to those less fit and try and make it fun. The whole circuit usually takes me an hour but we'll do a slower version for the less fit/tech savvy.

Glenbrook Station.
Not a mistake. Yes, I am doing it Saturday and Sunday lol
6:53am depart Glenbrook Station
7:23am arrive Woodford Station
The ride takes me, a beginner maybe just creeping into the intermediate skill bracket with average fitness for a 40 year old about 2hrs. I am taking a new rider friend so expect this return trip to Glenbrook to take between 3.0hrs to 3.5hrs.

Echunga Road (Japanese School).
We may head back for a meal at the Tavern. Not sure yet.
Short easy ride.
Check out the Royal Night Ride on the same night. I would go to that but I live in Thornleigh and it's a long drive to Loftus (on a school night) for a short night ride. Did the drive for the last trail-work-day, planning to ride there one day soon. The trails there look good. Quite popular too.
