Terrey Hills update for 18 Apr

Status: 
Amber/Some Issues

Did Perimeter trail tonight. Still very wet. Doable but I would suggest giving it a few days to dry out to save your drive train from lots of wet sand.

Do you have more information?

If you've ridden here lately please add a more recent report. This will be useful even if the condition is the same as updates expire after 30 days.
Please do not post comments with such information - post a new update with the link above.

Glenrock Guide

I'm in Newcastle on Tuesday 10th May to see some clients. I'll probably be finished around 3pm and was thinking about riding Glenrock immediately afterwards.

As I gather Glenrock is hit and miss if you don't know where you're going, I thought I'd see if anyone was available for a early afternoon ride & guide.

Any takers?

First timer advice for Ourimba

Hi,

I'm planning on heading up to Ourimba from Sydney with a mate on good Friday. Never been before and dont want to make the same mistakes I did with Menai. Too long of a drive to head home frustrated. Looking for some good XC trails and as much single track as possible. Is there good loops to tackle. I can put it up on the calendar if there's a bit of interest.

Cascades?

Can anybody tell me if the Cascades are ok to ride given the amount of rain over the weekend? Do the trails have the same erosion problems as Manly Dam? I want to ride this week and with Manly Dam being my local ride I am obviously avoiding that area until it dries out. I didn't want to ride the Cascades area (which I have never ridden before) and get in trouble for doing so.

Can anyone advise?

Cheers
