CANCELLED - > 100mm rainfall since Wednesday //Ourimbah Social Ride - for those not going to Canberra

Below is a preview, click to read the full post
When: 
Saturday, 4 April, 2009 - 08:15
Ride Database Entry: 
Ourimbah State Forest
Meeting Point: 

North End of Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. There's a large-ish parking area here, just off the main sealed road. There is also a smaller parking area a little further (400m or so from the road) where the trail splits - this second area is the usual meeting point. If you end up driving up a steep hill you've gone too far.

Red Hill Road, NSW @-33.275884,151.377053

I'd like to go for 3 laps.

For those who haven't been there: really nice 10k XC lap.
I don't think this is a beginner's ride, but certainly something to try out and improve your skills.

For those who have been there: see above...

Having said that, I don't want to race the lap, but would like to keep a bit of a flow in the ride for each lap. That doesn't mean we can't stop and try the challenging passages again, something which we don't do that often. A break after each lap for a quick snack and water refill is also planned.

CANCELLED - Cascades - 4 laps (too wet).

Below is a preview, click to read the full post
When: 
Saturday, 18 April, 2009 - 07:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Cascades
Meeting Point: 

At the St Ives gate (Acron Oval), Douglas street, St Ives.

acron and douglas, st ives, nsw

CANCELLED due to wet weather

4 full laps of Cascades with all gates.

This is my cross-country up-hill training ride. Long enough to have a similar elevation required for Dirtworks, close to home enough for a good rest after.

Please take care (observe the speed limits) on descends from the gates down to creek, and watch-out for walkers. On recent rides, i have seen more bike riders than walkers.

Well to keep Christine's alcohol intake up, I have posted a night ride for Wednesday. The weather has been a bit average the last few days so we may have to ride Duck and Centre which are usually a bit drier.

Way too much rain.....how annoying!

Manly Dam & Bantry Bay Night Ride (Wed 9th April) "CANCELLED"

When: 
Wednesday, 9 April, 2008 - 19:30
Ride Database Entry: 
Manly Dam
Meeting Point: 

King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.

-33.781501, 151.258115 (Manly Hydraulics Lab)

CANCELLED. The track would be to wet regardless if it clears up this afternoon.

This ride is not really for the beginner as Banty Bay is technical enough in daylight let alone night.
Good lights and burn time required also.

I probably have 1:45 burn time so may have to hug the Ay-Up equipped riders for the final leg home. (Oh The Love)

FINALLY: All to bring a beer or two for a social chat after the ride. (Compulsory)
