This is a trail maintenance day at Royal National Park.

If you are interested in helping out please contact the rangers via email for more details and to confirm your attendance:

Royal National Park Trail Maintenance Day - Saturday 19th September
Just an update on the ongoing trail maintenance being undertaken in the Royal National Park at the moment.
A second day is now confirmed for 9am Saturday 19th September and if anyone wishes to participate, here is the link to the original post that has all the details. http://nobmob.com/node/10019
I couldn't make it to the first one, due to work commitments, but I have seen the improvements on recent rides and there has been some good work carried out to improve drainage in a few areas.
It looks like drainage is going to be the main focus on the 19th.

Spring Fat Tyre Festival 2009
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
North End of Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. There's a large-ish parking area here, just off the main sealed road. There is also a smaller parking area a little further (400m or so from the road) where the trail splits - this second area is the usual meeting point. If you end up driving up a steep hill you've gone too far.
You know the drill... come race on the sweet Ourimbah single track.

More pump goodness
Check this out:
From: http://damianbreach.com/2009/?p=498
Someone should make some fibreglass berms and humps and stuff that you can lay out in a parking lot and bolt together. Like some kind of pump track equivalent of Scalextric.
Even on dirt areas you could lay that stuff down and sprinkle with dirt to stop having to re-form the track all the time!
Anyone here have the necessary skilz for that?

After struggling though the hills at Mogo last year, I thought better of doing the Angry Doctor this year and just have not done enough prep. Anyhow, for those who are not going here is a good ride we can do.
I would like to do 3 laps, but if there is any demand for the DH we can have a crack at that too and do 2 xc laps.
This will be social, but limited stops, so only intermediate riders please.

BoM Sydney Radar update
I noticed just now the Bureau of Meteorology has updated the Sydney rain radar to a high resolution doppler radar:
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR714.loop.shtml...
What does this mean for us all? Not much I suppose, but it now has a 64km loop with more detail on local areas, and something that tells you which way the wind is blowing. Handy if you're stuck in an office as I am, and want to know...
Rob, how does this affect the Nobmob weather page?: http://nobmob.com/weather
