Public meeting with NPA
The Narrabeen Tramshed, 1395a Pittwater Rd, Narrabeen
When it rains, it pours, eh?!
This is nothing to do with the Manly Dam debarcle that is ongoing as I write, but have just got word of another very important advocacy meeting from the editor of AMB:
Hi all,
The NPA has called a public meeting next week to outline their arguments against proposals to allow mountain biking in national parks in Sydney's north. We desperately need numbers there! In light of everything that has happened in the past few weeks we need to have a strong presence.
Warringah Council Meeting - Show support with silent protest
Council Chambers, Civic Centre, 725 Pittwater Road, Dee Why (enter Civic Drive)
While the council meeting is obviously still on, there's no need to go from an MTB point of view as Manly Dam is re-open
Council need to be shown immediately what a mistake has been made, and how many riders are effected by the recent Manly Dam trail closure.
As such it would be a very good idea to show up at this meeting for a silent show of support. Speakers are not allowed at this meeting and rowdy, insulant or other petty behavior would not help our cause one bit.

Please wear your riding gear and helmet so council are sure where your allegiance lies.
Manly Dam - Save the date
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I've cancelled this based on the recent posts on the site and to avoid confusion. Cheers, Justin

I think you can guess what this might be about 
It is chance to show council how many riders care about the Manly Dam circuit. The plan is to ride the circuit legally. What this means is that we will set of and ride where we can, walk carrying bikes where we are not allowed to.
Trailbuilding Day for the Sydney 24 in Del Rio
Del Rio Resort is on Riverside Drive, Webbs Creek, NSW.
Juliane and I have been out there twice now to build and scout for a new trail up the hill. I talked to the manager and he promised me that he will clear an old fireroad with his earthmover so we have a bit more trail there.
Now for the hill:
The good news first: J and I were able to cut in a nice new trail that leads around the hill. The 200 or so meters after that should be fairly easy to cut in
Sthn Highlands
already stated
well, if you knew me, you'd know where this is going to be
but our esteemed leader doesn't like semi-filled in vague listings
so i can't pre-post where i'm going
so i won't be filling in later where i've been as the place isn't there to be filled in to
RNP Maintanence Day
Rangers office carpark on Farnell Ave. This is the second turnoff you'll come to right at the top of the hill down to Audley.
This is a trail maintenance day at Royal National Park.
This Saturday we will be heading out into the Temptation Creek area again to do some much needed drainage works up on the top trail and if we have enough people we'll do some works down around the rock ledge section as well.
It’s going to be hot this Saturday so bring plenty of water.
It’s the usual 9.00 meet up time in the office car park on Farnell Ave – turn left 100 metres past the entry station booth on Farnell.
RNP Trail Maintenance Day
Behind Engadine Train Station.
Just got this from the rangers... contact Grant on the number below if you want to attend:
...some have said they’d like to do some work around Engadine improving site lines and mainly doing some minor track works. Others may prefer to keep working on the track near the creek crossing where we worked last time.
