CORC good stuff
This popped up on the MTB-OZ list today, thought it was too good not to share:

Dig around a bit and you'll come across stuff like this:
This is work CORC have been doing. Would love to see it emulated here.
Oh, OK, while we're talking about this, Stromlo Forest Park is also worth a look.
Mt Majura - Canberra
Went to do some cycling down in Canberra with some friends last weekend. Started off with a easy ride around the lake. Just 30km or so of bike path.
Then a friend who lives down there took us out to Mount Majura on the outskirts on Canberra. It's this pine forest with firetrails and singletrack littered all over the place!

Just head down to the airport then go down Majura Rd for 5min or so where there is a little carpark on the side of the pine forest.
Climb up to the top of the hill on the firetrail and then you can take singletracks all the way down and around the place. Can spend hours lost in the maze of singletrack!
Barrington Tops?
So... someone asked me about Barrington Tops today. They mentioned there was some 32Km downhill section!
Did a little bit of searching for cycling here but with no joy - does anyone know anything about this area?
Anyhow, I had a mess about with a few maps, and don't know about 32Km but there is a road marked (probably dirt) that runs right up to very near the top of the Barrington plateau (or whatever we're calling it). From the end of here at 1502m altitude there's one marked Kholwha Trail that runs East and in 13Km (as the crow flys, more of course with twists) it drops to 411m alt. Niiiiiiice!
