Experimental: Great North Road Early Sunday morning ride.

When: 
Sunday, 12 February, 2012 - 07:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Great Northern Road
Meeting Point: 

Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.

-33.38142,150.989066 (Park by the Ferry)

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

Escape the rain at Wingello

When: 
Sunday, 5 February, 2012 - 09:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Wingello State Forest
Meeting Point: 

4Km SW of Wingello village on Caoura Rd there's a small base camp within the forest - seems as good a place as any.

-34.715945, 150.191268

I'll be going here instead of Andersons. I will be leaving around 7am from Epping area. If anyone wants a lift PM me and we'll see what can be organised. Spare roof rack with 9mm QR fitting plus bike rack for 2. I already have one person coming with me but room for 2 more at a stretch. Plan is to get there around 9am do a loop, have a break, do another loop, have a break, do another loop and come home. Never ridden there before and looking at the BOM site has had no where near as much rain as Sydney.

Terrey Hills Night Social - Now Thu AND 6.30pm

When: 
Thursday, 2 February, 2012 - 18:30
Ride Database Entry: 
Terrey Hills / Duffys Forest
Meeting Point: 

Park on Aumuna road outside Terrey Hills Tavern

-33.682365, 151.227937 (Terrey Hills Shops)

Hi, posting this for Thu.

How about meeting a bit earlier and trying to link all trails? (Duck+Centre+Perimeter+Long) This adds up to somewhat short of 40km's.

People not that keen can still join, as it is fairly easy to drop out half way after finishing Centre track. This will total about 16km's car-to-car.

Cheers,
Volker
