Canberra choices

Heading down to the capital on Sunday and need a general consensus as to which one would be better off doin...
On Sunday, we're choosing between Majura, Sparrow or Kowen.
Sparrow we've done before but missed out on bobsled due to the forest works but not sure if its that worth doing again.

Kowen Park East - I've been researching and it looks to be coming around quite nicely but if there was a choice, what would be the best to choose?
Plus, is Kowen West or East the better option?

We'll be hitting up Stromlo on Mondee so just need to choose a run for Sundee.

visit to Canberra/Mt Stromlo

Anyone have advice on which tracks that should not be missed at Mt Stromlo? Any nice combinations of tracks? Or other things to keep in mind?

I've never been riding there before, but will be going to Canberra Sunday and Monday and don't want to waste my time so was hoping for some good advice! Thanks

Weekend in Canberra Riding in Jan

Anyone keen on heading down for the weekend to the ACT in Jan, cant do beforehand as I have a somewhat busy schedule between now and Xmas including a trip to the UK.

I was potentially thinking 15th-16th Jan or 29th or 30th Jan?

I was going to suggest Australia Day, however since that falls on a Wed this year as opposed to a Friday or Monday no 3 day weekend which is a shame.

Never ridden down there and would fancy a blast on some of the trails down there.

Canberra accommodation for 4 to 6 ?

I'm heading down to Canberra mid-November with 3 to 5 mates for a weekends riding. Can anyone suggest reasonable priced cabin, house or unit that sleeps 4 to 6 people. Have searched on Internet sites but they keep coming up with hotel rooms for 2. Thanks Ecca

Scott 24

Hey all,

So I noticed there's going to be a few people from NOBMOB participating in the scott.

Any hints or tips from the seasoned vets of the event?

Where's the best area to to try and score a camp site? Or doesn't it matter...

I'm really looking forward to it, I'm in a mixed team of 4.

Cheers

Am thinking of going to Canberra for the October long weekend. I have never riden there before and am extermely keen to have an explore. I am looking for advice from those that have been there and done it and interest from anyone that maybe keen to join us. I would really like to camp - is this an option and if so where abouts - it would be nice to kick back and have a few beers around a fire if possible.
Cheers Steve
