Rides this Weekened.

Just wondering if there are any places that aren't a swimming pool to ride this weekend? Happy to do a bit of driving around (in the Seaforth area atm), but would prefer if it was relatively local.

Cheers.

Riders wanted!

Hey guys,

Any locals doing a regular social ride of dam, red hill or orimbah that wouldn't mind a piss drinking Irish guy tagging along?
Crew I used to bike with have stopped. I bike the dam regular enough as it's local and do orimbah all mountain and dh trails when I get the chance.

Oxford Falls advice - Deep creek to Mona Vale road/Forest Way Supacentre

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hey all,

It turns out that my office is moving from Frenchs Forest to Belrose, so I'm looking for some advice on the best trails to use to get from Narrabeen/Deep Creek to the Belrose Supacentre..

I'm hoping to stay off the road as much as possible.

I did some preliminary trail scouting but found myself climbing from deep creek to the Bahai temple hill.. other than the sweet Deep Creek single trail it was unpleasant (pushing my bike up rocky escarpments most of the way) and i'd prefer to avoid that one being my daily commute.

A Century of Manly Dam Night Laps

The Challenge
100 Night Laps of Manly Dam

There's no time limit. My goal is to get it done in next 12months via double laps on the Wednesday night rides.

You can do it in your own time. Evidence required e.g photos, garmin, map my ride, strava, signed stat dec Smiling etc

I can organise a jersey with "A Century of Manly Dam Night Laps" or similar for those who complete the challenge. Price to be determined.

Look forward to any comments or updates on progress.

Are the Perimeter works finished?

Did anyone not ride up there over the weekend and not notice whether or not the works were not finished? Eye-wink

Cheers!

Oxford falls

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi all. Newby here. Went with the wife to do manly dam last Sunday and had an amazing time.

I am planning to do some of Oxford falls trails this Sunday 3rd nov. I am doing it alone this time. Just not sure about where some if the trails are so if anyone reading this is going too (you don't have to ride with me) but if you could point me in the right direction of the best rails if I look lost! I'm on an old giant rincon mango/black colour.

I used to hit everything in my teens and early twenties but now im 31 with 2 kids I don't have the balls I used to have!!

Deliberately hit by van on Morgan Rd Firetrail

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

FYI, a bit shaken.

I was out for a ride this morning and got deliberately hit by a white van on the Morgan Rd fire trail. I'm okay and I was not moving at the time as I'd pulled over and was on the side of the track. He was doing about 5km/h and I'd looked away.

I looked up to see a deliberate side swipe swerving 2m towards me and he knocked out his left rear view mirror. Couldn't move fast enough standing over my bike with bushes to my right.

Rego was DAF001.

He then got out yelled at me and started grabbing at my bike. I'd picked up his mirror from the ground.
