NZ integrated mtb calendar / rider ranking system
This looks like an interesting (and ambitious?) idea....

Short but essential video for any cyclist

Menai?
Planning to visit Menai on Saturday. Have not been there in ages and from this forum it seems it's undergone some major changes in the 5+ years since I last rode it.
Question: Is the track Db entry on this site and all info up to date or are there more recent track maps one should consult?
Cheers,
Staffan

Manly Dam Getting some more Love!
Saw this on the Warringah Council Website- October, Decent to King St south of Maroa Cres. I'm guessing that's only about 150-200 meters? Still, if they can keep slowly working their way around we will get a relatively weather tolerant track!

Ourimbah State Forest update for 15 Sep
Yesterday's hail storm packed a punch as the trail went from bone dry to having quite a few puddles and soft spots. Should be 100% in a day or two.

Kinross weekend away
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
The city of Orange is around 4 hrs from Sydney and 3 hrs from Canberra. Kinross State Forest is situated on the northeast edge of town, a 10 minute drive or 20 minute ride from the Orange town centre.
Meet at the Bulgas Road carpark, Western edge of the forest.
Drive out from Orange on the Ophir Rd, before you reach the rubbish tip, turn right onto Bulgas Rd. Follow this about 2km to the forest (the road turns to gravel).
Note that the 'Directions there' google maps link below may not give the best route/destination. It seems that google maps ignores Bulgas Rd when selecting a route and gives the next closest spot. The 'Meeting point' link should be correct.
I need to take a trip to Orange on the weekend on family business, so thought I'd visit the renowned Kinross trails and do a couple of laps (40km?)
If anyone from northern Sydney would like to tag along I'm happy to provide a lift, although Saturday afternoon I need to spend doing some boring stuff in town (assess a house for renovations). Can leave either Friday night or early Saturday.
Heading home straight after post ride tank refill (aka lunch).
Let me know preferences so I can make motel bookings earlier rather than later by Wednesday PM.

Trail information St. Ives Showground
Would the person or persons who last week (approx. 11th Sept.) seen doing track ? maintenance on riding trails leading out of St. Ives showground please consider what they are doing e.g.digging trenches across the trails to drain water in approx. 25 locations, laying sticks and branches across muddy sections dist.approx. 5 metres. I am under the impression riding a mountain bike is in the challenge of riding natural terrain.

Centre Track update for 14 Sep
Some water about but pretty good considering all the rain recently
