We will be meeting and parking cars at the Glenbrook Helipad. The Toll booth will most likely be unmanned at this time in the morning, but if it is let them know you are volunteering with the Mtb track Maintenance. You will not need to pay the entrance fee. Follow the road across the causeway and up the other side. Continue past the Euroka and Mt Portal turn off. In roughly 100m Turn Rright onto the Helipad access firetrail. Most commmonly the gate here would be closed but will be open for us on the day. Please try to be at the meeting spot before 8am so we can make the most of the day.

We have teed up a maintenance day with National Parks. It may be assisting with the current development or it may be doing some fixing up of the existing trail. This will be determined at a later date by Parks and Contractor.

This will also be a bit of a training day so the preference of those attending are volunteers who are interested in doing more future and regular maintenance days along the Oaks Single-track but all are welcome.

On the Day there will be a chance to have a good look at the development of the final 2km.

Parks will be supplying a lunch.

This is a quiet carriage. Not the best carriage for mountains bikers.
