Glenbrook to Wentworth Falls and back - Bring waterwings!
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook station carpark.
If you're starting to think doing the Oakes is ... well ... a little ordinary - do we have a doozy for youi! Glenbrook to Wentworth Falls via Woodford, and back again. 100kms of sheer mountain biking joy!
This ride is hugely satisfying, and if you have a decent level of fitness, it HAS to be on your itenerary. It's that good. (Very personal, opinions, but I'd rate Oakes up and down a 6, this longer, round trip jaunt a 9 or 10.)
Sparrow Hill
Some of our ride from the weekend trip.
Benj and Ethan swapped bikes, Ethan not having ridden a dually before and Benj (wearing the camera) wanting a refresher on what a hardtail was like. This is part of the result:
Duck Hole/Terrey Hills Trail update for 27 Feb
Sunday Evening 26th
Plenty of water lying around. Sketchy in places so ride carefully folks. Beginning by Coal & Candle Fire Station will need some serious grading if they intend to get a fire truck in there! Very washed away.

What happens when you take cycling seriously
An interesting article in Saturday's AFR on NZ's efforts to provide facilities for cyclists and the effect it can have on the economy.
The 18 “Great Rides” comprising the New Zealand Cycle Trail will span the country and are designed to be conquered by biking dynamos and amateurs alike. When completed early next year, it will provide 2300 kilometres of trail, linking up with other largely on-road cycling routes and giving tourists more opportunities to cover the country by bike.
Tyre Sale on Torpedo 7 - NOW
Torpedo 7 has a clearance sale on all tyres at the moment - good prices on Schwalbe, Kenda, Maxxis, Michelin etc.
Looking to get more riding in - any volunteers?!
I've been riding offroad for years, but after returning from Asia in mid '10, I find I'm not riding nearly enough, and mostly alone. I ride a bit on the Saturday TORC ride, Duck/Centre, the odd Anderson/Oaks etc and 1-2x/week roadie commute - but not nearly enough, and I have too many excuses to not ride when the alarm goes off early if it's just me! Got to get off my lazy a$$...
Sparrow Hill update for 26 Feb
Dry. Light spitting was just enough to dampen the dust, although the black clouds roilling in as we left about 3pm threatened more.
This place is Flow City. You blokes in the ACT are spoiled 
Oh, and the blackberrries are in season

Withdrawn: 2007 turner flux rear end with rp23 shock
free -flux rear end (one of the rockers is cracked) with fox RP23 shock (same vintage) in good nick. Left over from frame trade-in. The shock doesn't fit the new model, so it may as well go to someone that needs it!
