Anyone ride the dam today? How is it?

Thinking of doing a few laps tomorrow morning but wondered how wet it still is?

Current condition of Perimetre and Long tracks?

Does anyone know of the current condition of Perimetre and Long tracks? Are they too wet already?

Thanks.

Manly Dam This Weekend - Open?

Hey guys,

how likely is it from your experience that they will close the Dam this weekend due to all the rain/storms happening? Just trying to figure out if I need to look for alternatives to ride.

Thanks!

Cheers

Manly Dam, Dangerous trail fairies

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

So last week I went for a ride at the dam,

All was going swell until the final section of the downhill single track.
I was coming in pretty hot on the sandy right hand corner (before dropping into the twisty dutch ladders) when I was caught off guard by 7 fist size rocks that were placed across the corner, at right angles, cutting it in half.

MD extended loop direction?

Hi all,
Just wondering if there is a house view on the correct direction of the Manly Dam extended loop single trail. I was out this morning heading north and a came across 5 or 6 riders coming towards me. It's pretty tight so not much time to avoid each other.
Is there an agreed direction?
Thanks,

Where to base myself for mountain biking within 30 mins commute of Hornsby

Hi all,

I just landed a job today in Hornsby just near the railway station so I'll be moving back to the Northern Beaches which I'm stoked about.

Where would you live if you were in my shoes if access to good trails was your only consideration?

I've ridden Manly Dam a fair bit in the past and Oxford Falls/Red Hills.

I like cross country mostly with some descents chucked in occasionally.

Ideally I'd like somewhere I can be within a few minutes ride of to get to the trail head but only about 30 mins max commute from Hornsby.

Thanks,
Will
