Terrey Hills update for 12 Apr
Rode Perimeter and Long on Friday. Perimeter is still very wet with standing water across many sections of the track. It's passable but slow.
Do you have more information?

Croesus Track
Rode the Croesus track last weekend on the West coast of the South Island NZ. Most of the parks there are Forest Parks so seems they are all rideable. There's a whole heap of much more technical terrain available. I think it's definitely a destination to look into but weather would be a huge deterrent - it is the wettest place in NZ. Apparently when wet some of these are un rideable. NZ is really world class in terms of alternatives now. They have apparently just finished the Taupo trails - that's single track around the whole of Lake Taupo. It's a pretty easy long weekend too.
Tathra MTB Enduro postponed until June 7/8 2014
The TATHRA MTB ENDURO has been POSTPONED.
The event will now be staged on JUNE 7/8 2014.
Event organiser Andrew Johnson said rider safety and potential environmental issues were behind the decision.
“We have been monitoring the tracks and with the wet and soft soil, trees have been constantly falling,” said Johnson. “With gale force winds and more rain predicted, this is a major safety issue.”
He said the tracks have held up until this morning, but with 250ml of rain in the past month the ground can no longer handle any more water

Jesmond trails, caves beach
Hey everyone
Does anyone have any updated trail maps or info on the jesmond/John hunter trails. I've heard good things, but been up a few times and only found a couple of short runs which were fun.
There are trails going off everywhere, I know someone is going to say 'that's what is great about riding, go explore them all'. Let's just cut to the chase, where's the good stuff!?
Also just heard today that caves beach has a hectic track at the end of strathmore rd. will have to suss it out, anyone been there?
Jubes MTB Park bikecare group
I noticed a call for people to join a bikecare group on the Kuringai council website when I was looking around for a way to become involved in maintaining Jubes mountain bike park. I live up the road and it has become a bit of an eyesore and seems very much unloved with lots of weeds, dead turf and badly eroded pump track. So I sent an email to the address they provided and put my hand up.
Awaba State Forest update for 10 Apr
Lots of hero dirt! And... dozens of mud holes. It will require a drought / OR / multiple build days to fix all the mud holes.

Reccomended route for 100km training ride near Sydney?
G'Day Folks,
In prep for the Convict 100, I am keen to get in a long training ride this weekend on biggest hills I can find near Sydney.
Wondering if anyone can recommend somewhere - ideally a route with similar sized hills.
My thoughts so far, Oaks up to gate and back (50km) and repeat to make 100km. Bit boring though. Would appreciate any other ideas?
Cheers

The Common MTB Festival
