What happened to Stringybark Ridge?

Does anyone know what's happening at Stringybark Ridge? I went to an info day there ages ago and also filled an online survey. Haven't heard anything more since.

I received this eMail last week from NPWS & have their permission to forward the contact details.
I'm not sure how it ties in to the proposed trails at Bantry Bay, but I guess the more people that reply, the better. You can use whichever GPS tracking software you like - as long as you are able to eMail GPX files.
Also, the 4 week period for tracking is up to yourself to chosse. Get Involved!
The area of interest covers the greater Northern Sydney area:

Friends Wolgan Valley Rail trail

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Things have been ticking along from various fronts quietly in the background for a few years now so basically a few things have now been set up to give the project, ideas and dreams an bit more focus.

Crowd Source Funding of Trails

Do you think 200 people would donate $100 if the outcome was formally managed and properly built trails at Red Hill?

The funding is mainly to get environmental studies completed.

$100 is less than many bike parts and you get a trail network.

Garigal NP MTB Tracks

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hi everybody.

Just wanted to alert fellow members I heard just now on ABC Radio, a caller named Rosemary talking up the terrible prospect of an MTB Track through Garigal NP. I remember reading posts about this woman's antics on this website a while ago. She was quite strong in her arguments to the announcer about the threat to Aboriginal carvings and to wildlife if night riding was to occur, and of the threat of degradation. Another caller followed up with comments about trail bikes and park degradation also.
