Early Option Sunday 23rd
I'll be at Morgan Rd for Moon Rock, XC Loop and possibly Nursery Rhymes meeting at 6.30 for 6.45 start if anyone is interested in an early ride this Sunday
First Time NobMober ride - Sat 29th April
Saturday 29th April.
Update: Terrey Hills it is!
Terrey Hills:
---------------
Meet at the Terrey Hills shops, we usually park on Dandenong Rd which is just off Booralie Rd (check whereis.com).
You can find more information on the Terrey Hills ride at http://nobmob.com/node/7
I am planning to do the perimeter trail, out and back on the long trail then back to the shops via the perimeter trail (you can go back on the road, but this is mountain biking, people!)
There are some hills, but this is a generally 'undulating' ride and follows the ridge-top mainly so there are no massive ups and downs except for a couple of hills at the start.
Easter Riding
Anyone hanging around over the Easter period and looking for some local rides, not necessarily at 6.30am?
8/9th April rides
Saturday 08:30 - Cascades - Meet far end of Wyatt Ave (turn left where Morgan rd is to the right)
Sunday 09:00 - Oaks + Nepean + Helenas 09:00 meet at Glenbrook station - ride up to Nepean lookout, then up the Oaks trail to the Helenas turnoff and back down the Helenas track to Glenbrook, finishing probably by 1pm. The Purdy Gang will meet us coming down the trail and do Helena's trail with us.
Early Ride Sunday 9th
Anyone interested in an early, shorter ride Sunday morning, I will be at Morgan Rd 6.30 for a 6.45 start. Probably do XC with side trips and then Moon Rock.
Oaks plus side trips
With only 4 weekends 'til the Dirtworks it's time to get into gear for some long rides. Don't know about anything else, but would like to do at least one trip to The Oaks and add in a couple of side trips.
Was reading Fat Hippy's stuff last night (it's on the links page) and St Helena and Nepean Lookout sound the pick. Although St Helena raises the question of going out that way or doing it as an out and back.
Anyhow - please comment if you're interested, this will be a 50K+ and would ideally want to try it on April (pick one) 8/9/29/30.
Saturday 1 April
I was going to suggest Cascades on Saturday.
Bernd & Stuart will be there _early_ on Sunday (when I won't be riding) so could this still a goer? Failing that perhaps Morgan Road minus any climbs that will make my chain slip (still waiting for those parts... Grrrrrr!).
Sunday Ride
Sunday, 2-4-06 @ Cascades/St. Ives 7am for 7-15 Start
with Stuart and possible 2 other.
Anyone....
Bernd
Beginner ride - Interested?
I'd like to organise a beginner / lurker ride - probably manly dam or Terry hills.
This would be a gentle, easy pace, with regular stops for everybody to catch-up and bail out options. Probably not suitable for the mega-fit or regular riders, the point of this ride is take it easy (manly dam in 1.5-2hours)
This stems from me thinking I would like to see some of the folks on this forum!
What do you think? Maybe organise at a more convenient time eg. 10:30 sunday morning this week or next?
Respond to this message in the forum with your preference for time / date / place - once I get enough interest I'll set it up.
