Manly Dam x2
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I'm looking to do a couple of laps and maybe a third, depending on how I feel and how damp the track.
Lap 1 will be at an easy training pace of around 45 minutes, looking to do non-stop. Lap 2 will be at social pace ie, with breaks to wait for folks to catch up / catch their breath.
Happy to have folks join for first or second laps. ETA for start of lap 2 would be 12:50.
I'll be away from a computer from 8:45am so use your judgement on the weather - if it's been raining on the day I won't be riding.

A slowish cruise. I'm getting used to some new pedals and have been lazy/busy lately.
If coming with <24 hr notice pls send me an SMS. Time/location/status could change with little notice (over the phone) if low numbers.

No that it will be dark and I need to get more riding in my intention is doing 3 laps so lights definitely required.

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
Binned due to bad weather - it's not looking like the balmy night I'd hoped. Reports are that there has been constant drizzle/rain so imagine even if DH/C are good, Perimeter will be a soggy mess. No-one seems that keen so ride cancelled. Sorry if this catches you unaware.
Oooh look...
The Mont is on in couple of weeks.
I haven't riden on dirt since that crash at Appin in January.
Have just got back from couple week holiday.
Haven't used lights on the bike since... must be the Scott?

CCOMTB - Club Race - 2010 Round 6
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
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.
Awesome race at the best track around (ok, so I'm biased). Come along and race, and be home for lunch. Please park at the upper car park, I believe the lower one shouldn't be used by MTB riders any more.
XC Race day Fees are $15.00 plus an additional $15 for an MTBA day license if you don't have one. Registration is from 8am, racing starts at 9.30 sharp.

Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
A tour of the hill for anyone that's up for it.
Its not a Downhill ride, nor is it an XC ride.. lets just call it a technical ride
Planning about a 15K ride, no real need for armor, i don't wear it (famous last words?) but of course your more than welcome to wear it as there will be plenty of opportunities to go crazy ( if your into that kinda thang ).. you just gotta be prepared to wear it for some uphill as well.
Manly Dam 2 Laps
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I intend on stopping at the Dam on the way home. My intention is to do 2 laps before last light so no lights will be required. This isn't a training ride and we can stop and play on sections if anyone wants to
