Early Oaks Trail Saturday
I will jump on a Lapstone station train at 6:49am (Central at 5:48, Emu Plains at 6:43, Glenbrook at 6:53, Woodford 7:23 arrive). Can meet at either Lapstone station at 6:49 or Woodford station at 7:23.
I havent done Oaks for around 2 years. Looking for an average to quick run down. Medium to good fitness. Will be on first carriage at Lapstone or meet at Woodford at 7:23 on arrival. If it looks like its going to rain I wont go.
ACT - Majura & Stromlo
Coming from Sydney, drive into Queenbeyan, turn left at the roundabout where Red Rooster is and stay on this road for about 11km. Park on the side of the road where the gate is. For better directions try this link CORC: Events: Race Venues.
I'm pretty keen on heading to Canberra for a couple of days after Christmas. Thinking of spending an afternoon at Majura Pines, and then the following day at Stromlo.
Pretty flexible with where I ride, just have a couple of days free and thought I'd check out the ACT tracks! I'm open to suggestions of where to ride and for how long.
I'll be leaving from Frenchs Forest around 8:00am on the Wednesday (now Tuesday) and can fit another 2 bikes in the car if anyone's interested in coming with.
Menai just before dark
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
If someone wants to come along, i finish the ride with the last lights.
Glenrock Fun
Corner of Pacific Highway and Fernleigh Loop, Adamstown Heights
I am heading up the coast for a few days and plan on riding Glenrock State Conservation Area. I have never ridden here before so I am not sure how long is enough (I will have all day to ride ) so 4 hours seems a good start.
MTB Orienteering - Wallaroo
Nine Mile Creek Rd, Wallaroo
something I found while googling MTB things to do, was orienteering
and I happened to glance at a saved favourite last week and noticed it's this weekend
seems they might be competitive, in a series or woteva, but I'll have a looksy and try it, bit of a ride, bit of a giggle , not serious
i've told em i'm coming, so it's not my ride, just attending.
Menai
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
A ride tomorrow evening before it gets dark.
Mid week Menai - Fun in the dark!
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
This ride is not for the faint hearted or beginner as we'll be tackling some pretty tricky terrain.
Pace will be slow going up and on the flat, but pretty quick on the way down!
Most of the regular riders will be wearing armour, as we usually come off at least once or twice, so it is advisable. Other than that, your bike, a good light and your ability to dodge spiders, is all you need for this fun packed ride.
Hope to see you there.
PS: Don't forget a beer for afters.
Manly Dam 2 Laps
King Street (near corner with Arana Street), Manly Vale. You know - outside Manly Hydraulics Lab.
I intend on stopping at the Dam on the way home. My intention is to do 2 laps before last light so no lights will be required. This isn't a training ride and we can stop and play on sections if anyone wants to
Edit: Time change to 17:30
Manly after work
Wakehurst parkway entrance gate before the big downhill
SORRY STUCK AT WORK
Cascades no lights
End of Wyatt Ave, Belrose - this is on the East side of Garigal National Park.
It has been a few weeks recovering from "bulged disk" and a sore heap, but on Sunday i did some firetrails and i am confident to ride again full throttle. I want to hit the down hill track at cascades, but in rality i am not fuzzy as long as it is mainly single trail. So suggestions to change the ride are wellcomed, not the time as i will be barely on time.
