Is there a 3 seater bongovan?
I was thinking of getting a second hand bongo van or similar vehicle for the MTB trips and surfing etc, since the family car seems to be filling up with child seats.
Thought a courier style van would be a good option because you can carry the bikes internally.
Anyway, I usually ride with two other mates, so I'd be looking for something that seats 3. Most of the vans I see like the Hiace, Mitsubishi Express etc seem to seat two.

Berowra update for 13 Jan
this ride can be extended back to the end of Hamley Rd - first right off Beaumont Rd ( the Mt Kuringai industrial area ) then onto other trails in the area. Adds about kilometer.

The Alpine Assault is Australia’s ultimate 100km Mountain Bike race. The race starts at Falls Creek and finishes 100km’s later in Mt Beauty after travelling through the spectacular Alpine National Park. The course has been designed to take in some of the most spectacular Alpine scenery in Australia whilst delivering one of the most challenging single day rides in the country.

Short but sweet experience in Wanaka (NZ)
Spent 3 nights in Wanaka last week (missed the Rodeo 2nd Jan, was pouring with rain) and while I really didn't think I could fit any mtbing in, I managed to wangle a couple of unexpected hours on Tues 4th.
Kids splashing about in the lake, wife and I walking along the shops about 4pm and what do I see on the door of Racers Edge? A ride notice, MTB ride tonight 6 - 8pm that night (there were other rides other nights, at least one road ride) meet out front.

club race clashes?
just checking the club race calender and noticed for the second year, that i know of , that two of the biggest race clubs (wsmtb and ccomtb) near sydney have yet again clashed there races, so you couldn't race both clubs seasons, if you were so inclined, just wondered if anyone knew the reason?

Ourimbah Practice Laps
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here). Please do not park in this car park.
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB notice board here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up the hill). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
Going up on Sat to put in some practice laps, I will be riding quickish I expect to try and get some race pace practice in.
Looking to complete 4 laps.
