The meeting will take place at the front gate of Lovers Walk (Barnett St), please be ready with tools in hand at 7:50. At this time we will move to the work site for the day and a briefing will take place.

The day will be focused on the addition of one XC trail and the closure of 2 sections of trail. (This is part of the formalisation and rationalisation of a XC circuit). Synergy will also have some of their crew working on the Downhill so volunteers are welcome to choose to work with them on the DH trail.

Back Yamma 100km

I wasn't going to write up after this event because I was a bit disappointed but thought I would, just for my own future reference; looking back, I'm glad I kept going and didn't pull the pin.

This would be my first 100km race. I've done plenty of 50km's, 4hr's, a solo 6+6 and a heap of team enduro's but I'd never stepped up to the 100km. I go OK over short races, like club rounds and 50km's, but I don't have the endurance to go the full distance.

As many of you know, due to the heavy rain we have been experiencing over the last few weeks Western Sydney Parklands (WSP) Trust management made the unfortunate decision to postpone the official Wylde MTB Trail Community Open Day scheduled last month.

New Date of Community Day

WSP are now pleased to announce the new event date will be Sunday 12 October (12pm to 3pm).
