This last one in particular sounds promising - will put that in the Edge so we can follow it - this is what decided the meeting point.

See you there!

Christine, it's obviously been a while since you have ridden

that section of trail, or maybe your sense of smell / taste has been tainted by having 2 horses couped up on your little block of "paradise" for so long that you can niether smell nor taste the hint of horse sh%t in that water, that as Rob quite correctly points out, flows across the land uphill from the rock ledge. Guess what Blondie, that land is a horse paddock, go figure

Will be driving down to the Snowies on this day, makes sense to stop at a Can'bra track on the way? I've never done Sparrow Hill so will go take a look.

Anyone in the vicinity (especially that actually knows where they are going Eye-wink) please come along! Laughing out loud

That said, if there's no tour guide available, will probably put this circuit in the Edge and follow it:

For those down in the Snowies the week before this will be a 'rest' stop on the way home.

Play it by ear, but imagine there will be both XC and DH on offer.

Wet and slippery......

Something that really got me was this big black bird with yellow under its wings - nearly came off. Getting twitchy watching all the good times. But A broken back means I have to sit and watch for nine mths.

The Oaks

Hi,

As discussed previously I will be doing the Oaks this Sunday morning. Just found out that there are no trains running as well so there goes the cruisy ride up on the train!!! So i will probably go up the oaks (probably not all the way), maybe do St Helena's and then back down again.

Tracks for Families

Hello All

1st time Blog.
New to MTB. Tried Manly Dam, it was sensational.
Then took my nine year old son along, ended up pushing two bikes up the big hills.

Question: Does anybody recommend any starter trails suited for kids?

Cheers
APD
