Video Shoot Location - Any Ideas?

I'm looking for a location within 1 hour of Sydney to shoot a commercial video of a remote controlled helicopter. The location needs to have reasonable vehicle access (a short walk is OK), a classic "Aussie Bush" look, and an open area (approx. 20m wide). All shots will be close to the ground, and ideally the ground needs to be dusty (ie not well covered with grass). Council-controlled land / crown land/ private property would be best since it's had to get permission to shoot in National Parks. Any suggestions?

Need to work on the climbs and flat sections to get under 40.

Will focus on cascades for the next month or so to get my trail fitness up

Bobbin Head update for 17 Sep

Bobbin Head

Ran along this trail this afternoon.

I noticed several waterbars on the descent, though not all of the track is completely graded.
The part along the ridgeline is much more open (about ten metres wide in several places) which sort of moves away from the idea of mountain biking, but such is life.

Quarry Road Track - that has its ups and downs

When: 
Saturday, 18 September, 2010 - 08:00

The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Quarry Road Track (Berowra Valley)
Meeting Point: 

End of Stewart Ave, Hornsby

Show on Google maps: Meeting point. Login or register to get directions.

Just quickly cruising down this track to start the day, and not-so-quickly cruising (or more so CURSING) back up. Wouldn't mind some company.

It's just firetrail, but the great waterbar-punctuated downhills make it great fun, and the not-so-fun ascent is nevertheless good for fitness.

The old bridge down the bottom is beautiful, and a highlight of the ride, as well as a couple of other nice rest areas to break the climb.

12volt battery and charger

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi all, I m looking at building a LED light setup for camp spots during 24 hr races etc.
Currently I have a bunch of LED lights on the way that need to be powered off a 12volt source.

Im looking for a 12 volt battery rated at 25Ah or greater and charger as well. Does anyone have battery and or charger lying around that they dont need? or know of a cheap source?
A gel or seal lead acid battery would be great.

I will put a build blog up once the bits arrive.

First time at the Oaks (Woodford to Glenbrook) - Am I going to get lost?

Hello all, I'm very pleased to report I'll be doing Woodford to Glenbrook for my first time ever tomorrow.

I'm chomping at the bit to get going and have even dug out my special riding pants.

I'm just a little nervous at getting lost on the trail. Is it fairly well signposted on the trail or am I likely to get lost?

I've had a look on this site and the FatHippy's but I think I probably need an idiots guide.
