Knapsack XC this saturday (6.8.11)

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hey all,
Looking at checking out the XC trails at knapsack this saturday morning at 8am with the old man.
Haven't been there before and wondering if any of the locals are gonna be out there that may be able to show me around?
If not, where abouts is the trailhead located? Easy enough to find my way around without ending up a missing person?

Cheers,

The Oaks

HI, Will be doing the Oaks tomorrow - Woodford to EMu PLains.

Can anyone assist with the directions from Glenbrook to Emu Plains. Was thinking to get on the train a little bit earlier at Emu plains and get a little more riding in.

Thanks

Hello everyone, newbie here

Hi guys,

New too this forum talk, but keen to meet others. New to mtb as well, bout 6 mths. Have a HT 29er and ride Winmalee and Oaks fairly often. Looking forward to riding some new tracks, will keep my eyes on your calander and join up with you guys one day. Have entered some races also, so will have to keep riding...
My 12 yr old boy enjoys a spin every now and again, so he hook up to on a slower day, though he did the Woodford to Glenbrook just gone in 1:05. Not bad for a kid I reckon.
See ya's round.

Newbie: looking for a ride

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Joined this site today after meeting briefly a cyclist named Giles aka 'Hat Hill' whilst I was on an outing collecting kindling.

I have a bike that is basic, and not much used. I have ridden the Oaks trail once, over an easy 3 hours.

I am looking for other people of similar experience - next to none - (or those very patient and willing to teach some skills about riding off road).

I live in Wentworth Falls at present and would rather do some local rides ie Blue Mountains of no more than 2-3 hours duration, with an easy grade.

Cheers,
David

Mt York conditions

Anybody know how Mt York / Lockyers has faired with the recent moisture.

At this rate I'm going to organise my own indoor race around Westfields!!

Oaks Single track Closures Sat 4th

BMORC is assisting NPWS with some pruning on the Oaks singletrack and we would like to let other riders know that sections on the singletrack will be closed off on Saturday, 4 June 2011 from 9am. The plan is to close one section at a time so riders still get to ride parts of the singletrack on the day.

See official note here.

Mt York - Saturday 7 May circa 1pm?

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hi all

I'm planning to ride Mt York this coming Saturday at about 1pm (down Coxs, up Lawson).

I haven't ridden it before, so would really like to find someone(s) who has and ride with them. Either way, I'll be taking it pretty slow (slower if I'm by myself, I guess).

Any interest?

Regards
Daniel
