Hi,

keen to do something different. I have never been on the GNR before, but have a GPS file/ description which indicates that a great loop ride of somewhat just over 40km can be had in the area. Other accounts indicated that it drains well.

So, if you want to experiment together with me, sign up!

If you know the area, you can still join, but don't tell the group. Smiling

You would not want to loose out an opportunity on watching the rest of the group to get lost, right!

Cheers,
Volker

Hi All.

Getting ready for the Capital Punishment (17th March), and it's overdue for some serious time spent off-road.

This will be a voyage of the great unknown for this wannabe racer. I've only done this ride one-way, and then they were the easy option; Wentworth down to Glenbrook.

This time it's a climb up to Wentworth via Ingar , then back down again via Andersons to Glenbrook. (With quite a bit more 'climbs up' thrown in between!)

Appin XC track maintenance

When: 
Saturday, 17 March, 2012 - 08:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Appin
Meeting Point: 

North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.

Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.

-34.200985,150.792578 (North end of Burke St, Appin)

Bring your own tools if possible. I'll try to ge some from WMBC as well. We'll probably be cleaning up the drainage on the second half of the track - from the roll down/bridge back to the carpark. If we get enough people it would be nice to send off one team/pair to do the short reroute on the descent to the bridge while the rest work on the drains. Don't forget sunscreen, gloves and plenty of water.

WSMTB Stans No Tubes 4 Hour - Rnd 3 - Cancelled

When: 
Sunday, 19 February, 2012 - 08:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Yellomundee Regional Park
Meeting Point: 

There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.

-33.663669, 150.656361 (Hawkesbury Rd)

Unfortunately Round 3 of our Summer 4 Hour Series (19 Feb) has had to be cancelled. This is due to the amount of track damage caused by the torrential downpour last Thursday 16 Feb (100mm in an hour) plus more rainfall, and forecast of more rain.

If you have already registered and paid, you could transfer this money towards our next Club races, or email me at [email protected] (with bank details) for a refund.
