New MTB tracks in the Blue Mountains
Anyone have any info or status update on this statement by the SCA last year:
http://www.sca.nsw.gov.au/news/ministerial-media...
Specifically: "A 62 kilometre track from Blackheath to Yerranderie and an 11 kilometre track from Wentworth Falls to South Katoomba are currently under consideration for mountain bike riding access and will be on display for public feedback".
The local councillor is concerned about rubbish at Appin
Hi guys
Because I saw a dozen NOBMOB's were heading out to Appin last Sun I detoured from Ourimbah, riding has more energy when there's lots of people eh.
Anyway, at the carpark after a couple of laps friendly Norm who lives a few doors down and is on the local council asked us to pass the word around that they've been finding lots of rubbish at the carpark. He seems to think it's 'not you lot' but rather the hoons parking at night with a bottle of JD, a ute and too much rubber on their tyres.
There was powerade on the ground though, so everybody, please pack the rubbish out.
National Parks and tourism
Based on the call for comment Rob posted here http://nobmob.com/node/5487
Below is my submission
The Secretary
Task Force on Tourism and National Parks

Dear Sir
As a keen park visitor and avid cyclist I read with interest the
recent report into park usage and am pleased a task force has been set
up to help encourage an increase in sustainable tourism use.
A major limit to my visitation, and that of many other cyclists, is
the severely restricted access of cycling on trails with in National
parks.
Oxford Falls XC loop in Garigal National Park
Anyone ridden there lately?

Apparently NPWS is going to crack down on riders on the cross country loop. Mountain bike riding isn't allowed on singletrack according to the Garigal plan of management.
