Trails inside OpenStreetMap

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

I've discovered that some trails like Yellowmundee or Appin have been implemented in the free/wiki equivalent of Google Maps: OpenStreetMap, see here Appin XC route (in red).

The good thing with OpenStreetMap, is that there isn't a giant corporation behind to restrict the use of it. For example, I have an App on my iPhone that can save the cache and therefor able me to check the route while having NO reception at all.

Duck Hole/Terrey Hills Trail update for 29 Aug

Status: 
Green/Open

There's a few puddles to jump over or splash through, but the rest is mostly dry.
The descents have a few loose largish rocks and the start beside the fire station is pretty rough.

Beautiful afternoon for a ride Smiling

Wildlife count: 2 wallabies and 1 goanna sitting in the middle of the track.

Anyone want to skive off work and ride on Thursday?

I've got a rare as hen's teeth/rocking horse $hit day off on Thursday! The wife will be at work and my daughter at daycare which gives me a FREE day or other words A GOLDEN TICKET TO RIDE! so I want to make the absolute most of it whilst I can.

Is anyone else not working that day or can skive-off and want to join me?

I'm thinking about heading up the GNR but won't go there alone midweek. Totally open to other ride options too but would be good to put in a decent 100km of fun riding ie, not training pace (unless you want to)

Any takers? I'll post it up if there's interest.

Pleasure & Pain not so pleasurable nor painful

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

We came to Coffs Harbour last week to have a quiet wedding and it turns out there was a mountain bike race on dead smack in the middle of my holiday...happy days!

There has been a lot of rain up this way over the past weeks but we arrived to terrific weather. In fact I packed longs thinking it would be cool so the washing machine in our holiday house has been working every night so I can wear my only shorts and t-shirt each day. We've even been swimming in the pool.

Ourimbah social next Sunday 3-9-11

After doing a couple of laps yesterday and loving it, I plan on going up again next Sunday morning.

I prefer to get up there early and if there's any locals who want to show us round and how to tackle some of the A lines, that would be great.
Maybe do a steady paced lap first and then do a second, faster paced lap if anyone wants to?

If I get a bit of interest, I'll put up a calendar entry.
