Mount Banks
At a Glance
Easy/fun/short-ish fire trail ride with great views.
George River
I've found a ride on Garmin's Connect website that seems interesting.
It's in the region of Campbeltown, near the George River Nature Reserve.
Anybody went for a ride over there? Any good?
Have you done any volunteer trail care so far for this year?
Mixed Nuts - 4th Mont Podium!
Great to get back with Steve01, Gazza and Martine - the 'Original' Mixed Nuts.
Had a great spot in one of the 'premium camping areas' beside the track, and our own Dunny!
Gaz and Steve were in great form, and Martine despite not feeling well all weekend did a 'Xena' impersonation and did amazingly.
I was well trained (the Adelaide Hills rule!), but not quite at the same race pace as Gaz and Steve (who is, those guys are legends!). Still, I did consistent laps circulating in the low 60s. Must admit though, 15hrs driving (from Adelaide) had taken a bit of gloss off my condition.
Appin update for 12 Apr
Most tracks are now dry. The yellow arrowed race track has no issues, although the lost track has almost dried out and a lot of the damage caused by the Moto X riders has been fixed, there is still one section heavily rutted that still has puddled water. This will get fix in the next few weeks , all in all Appin is good to go, another couple weeks and we should go Green.
Do you have more information?

Help Needed: Old Man's Valley mountain bike trail plans under threat
The NIMBYs are at it again, threatening to derail well-advanced plans for mountain bike trails in Old Man's Valley in Hornsby. If they succeed, trails could be deferred for quite some time, maybe indefinitely. We saw how that works with the watering-down of the Golden Jubilee mountain bike park and the removal of the singletrack loop.
To stop that happening again, we need to show that we are are a legitimate group, that the proposal has deep support, and that these few residents' concerns are unfounded.
What you can do
To do that, we need a strong show of numbers at the Hornsby Council meeting, to outnumber the NIMBYs who we expect to try to stack the meeting.
If you want to do your bit, make plans now and most importantly turn up at 7pm Wednesday 18 April at Hornsby Council's Chambers, 296 Pacific Highway Hornsby.
If you're coming, please indicate here: http://nobmob.com/node/35182
**** UPDATE 16/4/2012 6:23pm ****
This meeting has been cancelled due - I believe - to the council report not being completed by deadline.
The agenda item has therefore been bumped to a future Council meeting
More info to follow when it comes to hand.
Family friendly rides near Mt Wilson, Blue Mountains?
I'm planning a family trip to the Mt Wilson area to see the autumn leaves. Are there any family friendly rides (i.e. scenic, not too steep or rocky) in that area that can be enjoyed by the whole family?
Cheers, Hans
