Cascades Monday 27 Jan
Hi everyone,
Going out for a ride on my new bike tomorrow.
Heading to the Cascades trail, parking at the end of Wyatt Ave as per the trail data on this site.
Will be there about 7:30am and plan on spending a couple of hours hitting the tracks.
Haven't done MTB for about 25yrs, so this will be all new to me again.
Back in the day there was no suspension, no disc brakes, no dropper posts.
And the bikes weighed more than the dual suspension rig I'm riding now.
Got a Specialized Camber Expert Carbon Evo and so far very impressed.
Red Hill
Hello everyone I was just wondering if anyone could help me out here. I'm new to mountain biking and went to red hill for the first time today. I ended up getting lost and having a trek to get back to my car.
North side track conditions
The Eastern Suburbs got pelted with hard rain early on Sunday morning which left me thinking the same would have happened on the North side.
Looking at the track statuses it appears that there was nothing of note. Did you guys up North manage to avoid the rain?
Ok, so who now has a branch thru their leg?
So.... A Wednesday cascades night ride ended badly for someone that one of you knows out there... They ended up in the ED with a stick 2 inches into their leg! As you do... Anyone care to shed any more light on the situation, or know how mr sticky is recovering?
Otherwise I hope everyone's injuries will be healed in time for Xmas (there seems to be a few going around of late).
And before @hawkeye says it... We will need photos... 
Orimbah / red hill
Hey guys,
Looking to get back in the saddle this weekend after a few months not riding.
Heading to either orimbah for a bit of all mountain and dh or red hill over weekend. Prob orimbah as only biked red hill once and prob get lost on my own unless I follow someone around!
If anyone is keen for a ride pop me a message. Always keen for ride with a few blokes.

New To Riding
Hey everyone just got a mountain bike and have just started riding. I was wondering if there were ever any group rides I might be able to tag along with. I have looked at the red hill trails and others and other and they look like mazes and I don't want to get lost. It would be really nice to ride and learn the trails with other bikers. I've done the Manly Dam ride three times (went from 1 hour down to 40 minutes already) now and while it's fun I think I may get bored of only riding that. So if anyone is riding and wouldn't mind a tag along I would love to come and ride and meet some people.
Bottom of Red Hill development?
Just wondered if anyone knows what's happening adjacent to the fire station on Little Willandra Rd as the lower section of bush has been cleared....new pump track?
Night Riding - decent trails
Troops - just looking for general info on night riding and decent trails.
I was thinking of trying Muppets/sniggle etc. Is there any etiquette in this part of the world or just go for your life??
(keeping noise down being the obvious rule of thumb)

Muppets/Sniggle/Wildflower
Troops - Just wondering if anyone rode Muppets etc over the weekend, what's it like?? muddy as hell??

From Italy without a bike!
Hi guys! I'm a new member of this awesome forum. I'm from Italy and from Dec 28th I'm gonna spent my holidays around Sydney. It would be great to find a nice place and nice people to ride with. I'll have no bike with me and need to rent one with helmet, knee guards etc. I use to do all-mountain and free ride here in Sardinia and will be awesome to ride new spots around the most beautiful city in the world! I'm gonna stay in Dee Why from Dec 28 to Jan 5th, and read about Manly Dam or Oxford Falls (that seems to be crazy!).
