Sunday 15th October - Intro ride
So I've been asked to take a bunch of novice MTBers out for a ride and I recommended Terry Hills.
So the plan is meet at Terry Hills shops at 08:30 Sunday 15th October.
This is open to all - be good to see you there.
All the usual -
- Helmet (no helmet=no ride)
- 2 litres water
- muesli bar / energy snack
- sunscreen
- spare tube
- pump (I'll have one so not mandatory)
This is mostly smooth-ish firetrail so if you haven't done a lot of MTBing then this a good intro.
We'll do about 22 Km in two to two and a half hours.
any questions, reply to this, drop me a message through this site or call me on 0419 611 681

Mount Tianjara
At a Glance
Miles and miles of firetrail with spectacular views all around. Is this a cross country rider's dream?
Oriumbah Again this weekend
Hi there!!
I have been to Oriundah last Monday and had a fall in the Downhill track. Today I discovered I lost my pump in that fall, so I am going back this weekend. I am planning to get there after midday (around 13hs), ride until dust, stay overnight and keep riding on Sunday morning. Then to the beach in the afternoon. Beautifull beaches in the entrance, and good to keep up with the lady. Still have one more spare space in the car and room for another bike. Anyone interested give me a call 0403-892857. Otherwise hope to meet some of you there!!

This is just a pic from today which I thought worth posting. It was at the Cemetary Park near Manly West Public School. We were just mucking around and found a bit of a launch.
Kangaroo Hill
Although the names of the trails you see forking left and right are somewhat in dispute (see here) the name of this hill is not. It's Kangaroo Hill.
This is looking North and Tianjara is the fork running left (west) of the hill. Depending on which source you believe, the right fork is either Tianjara or Kangaroo Hill Link or also Tianjara.
Tianjara Climb
From South to North there are a couple of testy little climbs (they are steeper in this direction) and this is probably the worst of 'em. Well, actually, the worst of this is round the corner where things get pretty loose and the grade increases to the top.
Pratiwi is that dot half way up for those wanting a sense of scale
