Kick off the new year in good health. Casual paced ride, flexible with time, first time doing this ride so it would be awesome if someone who has done this could show me the way:)
See you there.
Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 31 Dec
I rode the trail yesterday, 30th December. Generally the trails were fast and tacky. A few trouble spots on Upper Kenny Wells particularly where the trail splits into two different lines.
Some of the clay areas were also hard going.
After last nights downpour it may be better to let the place rest till the new year.
Do you have more information?
If you've ridden here lately please add a more recent report. This will be useful even if the condition is the same as updates expire after 30 days.

Garmin Edge 705
I'm looking at purchasing a GPS system in the near future and the Garmin Edge 705 seems to be an ideal solution from :
http://www.ryda.com.au/ProductDetails.asp?Produc...
Can anyone let me know what comes with the unit in terms of maps or how I would get the maps / routes on there e.g. Manly Dam to record my times etc ?
Is it worthwile getting the cadence component as well ?? and does the unit work fine if it's in my camelbak or does it need to be mounted ideally ??
Early Oaks Trail Saturday
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
I will jump on a Lapstone station train at 6:49am (Central at 5:48, Emu Plains at 6:43, Glenbrook at 6:53, Woodford 7:23 arrive). Can meet at either Lapstone station at 6:49 or Woodford station at 7:23.
I havent done Oaks for around 2 years. Looking for an average to quick run down. Medium to good fitness. Will be on first carriage at Lapstone or meet at Woodford at 7:23 on arrival. If it looks like its going to rain I wont go.
How out of shape have you become over the holidays this year?
Already planning an encore
Wow! What can you say about this trip... this place... that can do it justice? I guess you really can't so this will probably seem a bit short:
It seems like an age ago that a very brave Supagav posted up this trip and left it open to all. Amazingly brave but it worked out beautifully, and many thanks to him and V and the folks over in NZ for taking care of so much of the organisation.
This was a bit of a strange experience for me to be honest. Usually taking care of every detail of a trip, but this time was able to just turn the brain off and wonder around, eating when food was shoved under my nose, getting in the van when everyone else did, sleeping when tired, pedalling when there was a hill to climb and grinning like an idiot when there were sweet, flowing berms to follow. It was all a blur, but that just about sums it up!
NPWS Camera's about
I have seen a few signs around Garigal & Bantry Bay stating "cameras in use". I thought they might be a scare tactic but I actually stumbled on a camera today at Cascades on the main track. They are green camouflaged boxes. So beware if you are venturing into a closed off section (which you shouldn’t be doing anyway).
