NSW All Schools XC Championship
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.
The 2011 JetBlack NSW All Schools XC Championship presented by NSW MTBA and hosted by WSMTB Club will be held on Sunday 19 June at Yellomundee Regional Park. See www.wsmtb.com for details, race documents, and entry spreadsheet.
The aim of this event is to encourage MTB participation in all NSW High Schools. This will be our third championship. Last year we had 210 riders from 30 schools.
Kiwarrak State Forest XC Loop
Next to the tip entrance (grassed area) on The Bucketts Way (between Tinonee and Purfleet).
I'm heading up to visit family this weekend again and am looking to do a couple of laps (at least) on the newly marked XC loop at Kiwarrak.
This is a really fun loop that's almost entirely singletrack or sniggle, and not particularly technical. The elevation change is mild with a few gentle climbs rewarded by flowy downhills. It is well marked with large fluoro painted arrows indicating the circuit at most trail junctions.
For the more adventurous, there are some more technical options off the main XC loop.

Mt York - Saturday 7 May
Mt York Road, in Mount Victoria. Meet at the Lawson's / Berghoffer's trail head.
This is a once-down, once-up ride:
- Start at Lawson's trail head
- Single track to top of Lockyer's
- Down Lockyer's
- Either back up Lockyer's or up Lawson's depending on mood.
Make sure you bring tools / spares, as there are plenty of sticks and stumps to upset your ride.
Forecast is for a maximum of 14, so should be great riding weather.
