Entries open for 2009 Capertee-Challenge 26/27th September
Entries have just opened for 2009 Capertee-Challenge 26/27th September at www.capertee-challenge.com . I did it last year and it was a lot of fun and the two 50km+ loops over saturday afternoon and sunday morning is an interesting way to wind down from the more difficult 100km Mogo ride whilst keeping fitness.

Weekend ride - Ideas Please
There are 5 of us all on XC hardtails and we're looking for an adventure so roughing it isn't a problem. Mix of technical and firetrail would be ideal. Four hours drive from Sydney and 50KM riding distance would be the max.
We were thinking of Mt Stomlo but it's closed when we've got our leave passes so we'd like some other recommendations! Suggestions?

Wollombi Wild Ride
