Appin XC track maintenance
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.
Bring your own tools if possible. I'll try to ge some from WMBC as well. We'll probably start just by walking around the track and tidying up the drainage. Don't forget sunscreen and plenty of water.
National Series #3 - Stromlo
Uriarra Road, just up from the Uriarra Road/Coppins Crossing Road turnoff.
Round 3 of the National XC Series is held at Stromlo. I figured its close enough for the Nobmobbers to be interested.
Racaing XC at Stromlo is something else. Sure - riding all the trails in a 24, or at the end of Capital Punishment is good, but imagine hitting the Luge track full gas with fresh legs.....
The XC at National level is not to be feared, just enjoyed. We all spend so much on bikes, kit etc - why not ride with the best in the country - in your own age group?
National Series #4 - Awaba
Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
This is final round of the 2011/12 National XC Series.
Its the first time it will be held at Awaba, and I really want to try and encourage as many of you as possible to give it a crack.
We dont have a proper state series (yet.....) so some might worry that there is a big jump from club level racing up to National level racing.
Far from it.
At National level racing there are age-groups. Its not just A / B / C / D grade. So you can be sure you will be racing people of a similar vintage. That means the track will be clearer for you.
Quarry road
Quarry road Dural, at the entry gate
Training ride for The Mont. Happy to meet at Stewart Road end if that's easier for others to get to instead of Dural
Knapsack Reserve Twilight Ride
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
A loop around Knapsack Reserve this week and then back to Glenbrook Park for a byo BBQ.
All welcome!!
Christmas ride
End of White Cross Rd, Winmalee, NSW. There's a small parking area here but it's a standard suburban street so overflow isn't a problem.
We'll most likely head to the Winmalee tavern after the ride.
All welcome.
Withdrawn: KHS XC 604SE MTB, extra small.
Note that this is "Withdrawn" so is here for archive purposes only.
Selling my partners extra small KHS,
Rockshox Revelation,
Juicy 5's
X9 gears
Good tyres, Nobby nick and crossmark.
good looking bike for a 12 to 14 year old or a small female.
it's not light or has any fancy features ( apart from dual suspension with settings, lockout and hard/ soft etc )
Everything works fine and is bombproof.
You cant see on the pics but the frame is a bit scuffed here and there but it's alloy! It's never gonna rust!
P.m. me with any queries!
Thanks,
Gazza

Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
Looks like it will need to be out in the Park if dry.
All welcome!!
Awaba Laps
Just up Jenkins Road from corner with Mount Faulk Road.
As discussed here http://nobmob.com/node/32895
The laps will have a break between them but looking at doing the red loop in low 40's at a consistent pace.
