Oaks Up and Back - Twilight to Night Ride
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook station carpark.
Possibly the last night ride of the year
Starting a 6.00pm we will riding up The Oaks reaching the top as the sun is setting - 27k and 70% climbing (this will probably take 2 hours to 2.5 hours).
Once at the top we will be turning around and riding back down in the dark - 27k and 70% downhill (about 1.5 hours). Those who only want to ride down can meet us at the top.
You will need good lights (preferrably charged), a reasonable level of fitness, and a beer for post ride.
FOUND | Multi Tool | Manly Dam
I found a multi-tool on the Manly Dam trail. If it's yours please send me a PM with the description, date lost and a rough time of day so I can get it back to you safe and sound.
Cheers

New Server!
In case you wonder why the little up/down yesterday. We are now on a new server, that looks a little something like this:
Being a nerd, I wrote some BS about it and posted pictures here:
Last night ride of the Year - Oaks up and back
Since a lot of people go away between Christmas and New Year I just want to gauge the interest in holding the years last night at the Oaks.
Tentatively we could hold it on Monday 29/12/08 or Tuesday 30/12/08, starting at 6.00pm to avoid the heat of the day.
We would ride up the Oaks getting to the top at twilight or there abouts then riding back down with lights (the sniggle is fun to do fast at night).
The distance is 54k and it will probably take 4hrs with breaks.
Will there be anyone else around Sydney during this time who is interested?

As part of the Mtb training I need to do some hill climbing training to improve technigue and build strength, what are the best places to go for this?
