Withdrawn: Giant XTC Composite 29er 0 (2012) Medium Size
This bike was purchased in Sept 2012 from Cycleworld in Burwood and all documentation is available.
The bike is suited for racing with fantastic handling and responsiveness. It has been ridden on smooth fire trails and single track only,no jumps. Its in immaculate condition and gets cleaned after each ride. The entire bike is in perfect working order and comes with the Giant lifetime warranty on the frame.
All original, except for upgraded seat post, stem and handlebars.
The only reason I'm selling the bike is that I'm focusing my attention on road cycling.
Lap of Woodford Dam and the single track.
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Car park behind Hazelbrook shop's. Meet by the new amenities block.
We are going to do a lap of Woodford Dam then over the highway, ride the single track and maybe out via Terrace Falls.

Park opposite/beside Terrey Hills shops, corner Booralie Rd/Yulong Ave. Or in the small carpark next to the RFS station & community centre.
The weather forecast looks a lot better for Sunday, mid-20s. Here's a chance to check out what NPWS has fixed on the trail with Perimeter trail scheduled to be opened on Friday.
Update: since NPWS contractors haven't finished the works on Perimeter we're reverting to Duck Holes and Centre.
If there is appetite for some climbing we'll throw in Chiltern in the middle for some variety. I haven't ridden on this track previously so we can get lost together

Knapsack Oval, end of Levy Street Glenbrook
Following a GPX link I downloaded into the Garmin for first lap. After that will probably do more laps or just explore for a couple more hours. Trying to get some km's in after 5 week illness so not looking to stop too often but won't be a cracking pace either. I suspect somewhere between the 15-20km/hr mark on average

Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here). Please do not park in this car park.
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB notice board here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up the hill). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
Riding up to Kulnura via Condies shelf road then Red Hill road until we get to the tar & then return the same way. A couple of XC laps once we"re back to finish off the legs. Pace will only be as fast as the slowest rider.A few hills in this one.
