Royal National Park information
Hi all, can anyone suggest a good ride route at RNP? I've never been there before but want to check it out next weekend with some other beginner riders. The NPWS website isn't very forthcoming with details and the ride database on this site hasn't had an update in a couple years. Something not too hilly and 10 - 30 km length would be ideal. Is Rob's cruisy loop entered onto the database way back in 2007 still a good one? Otford lookout is sensational and has a great track heading north from it that I walked a couple years ago...can you ride that track?

RE: VEHICLE & MOUNTAIN BIKE BAN - MEETING, THURSDAY JULY 7
On behalf of all MTB riders I would like to thank all who attended the meeting and especially the efforts of Gavin Atkins, the ANSTO Media Advisor, his approachability, interest and concern were greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank Dr Simon Kean from NOBMOB & Trail Care, who has been instrumental in his support to help us reach a timely solution.
BMX Lumber-jacks
yesterday while walking my local trails with my dog ,on a section of single track I came across an area wear local kids have been building BMX jumps this does not worry me except that along with this they had hacked down about 13 gum trees indescriminately some of these trees would have been 60 foot high ,the place is a mess ,combined with heaps of litter laying everywhere ,I can't believe the mentality of these people (or lack of) I called the local ranger who is going to go there and have a look at this vandalism but it is unlikely that these people will be found unless caught in the act,I a
MENAI (LUCAS HEIGHTS) is officially OFF LIMITS to MTB's
The nanny state strikes again!
Sweet RNP single track footage
Had a great session at Royal National park yesterday. Some sweet single track on footage:
Towards the end there is a funny creek crossing technique from the riders angle.
Camden "Kessel Run" Sat 9am?
I'm keen for another go at the Kessel Run out at Camden, a fantastic 100% singletrack ride which a group of us did recently.
Given that the forecast is currently for dry weather all week, this weekend is looking good.
So just want to see if anyone's interested in hitting it say Saturday 9am.
If there's some interest I'll create a ride meeting.
Menai conditions???
Has anybody been to Menai / Lucas heights in the last day or so?
Is it a muck fest or looking pretty good?
I rode there a couple of weeks ago and it was nasty.
Anybody got any good news??
PLEASE!!!!
appin status for this weekend???
keen for a ride at appin tomorrow morn...anyone know what updated status is??
Trail status - Camden River
Did this run this morning about 8am.
Not been a drop of rain there, grip is really good. I even managed the second creek crossing without putting
A foot down. Couple of bits are a bit sandy but over all it's in very good condition. The big log roll has also had some dirt and smaller logs built up each side so it can be navigated without going over the bars. (Ben

Well worth the trip down if you want to avoid the rain.
Please Update Trail Status After Rides Today - Especially Appin!!
Folks,
With all the reain, please update the trail status so those planning to ride Monday morning can plan appropriately. We are thinking of heading to Appin for the first time and it looks like it may still be ok
