There was some discussion on where to go on Red Hill ( http://nobmob.com/node/11267)

I have been there a few times and know some bits, but there is always the oportunity to know more, that is a nice way to say i get lost and discover new tracks from time to time, more often than i would like to admit Smiling

This is a reprise of the ride held last weekend that I couldn't make. It will be a straightforward non-technical ride, and suitable for those wishing to introduce a friend to the sport.

The ride will be slow and social. I haven't ridden this trail previously, so we can go exploring together. The length of the out-and-back is about 22km, so probably not suitable for really young children.

Weather Plan:
If it turns out to be unbearably hot we will postpone to a 5pm start so as not to stress the junior riders.
If steady or heavy rain or slushy conditions we will defer one week

Firday Arvo Cascades and something else

When: 
Friday, 30 October, 2009 - 16:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Cascades
Meeting Point: 

End of Wyatt Ave, Belrose - this is on the East side of Garigal National Park.

-33.724071, 151.210407 (Wyatt Ave, Belrose)

This is shot 2 from last week as discussed with Rob in that opportunity.
My idea is to go down the cascades down hill single track (if i find it), climb out and see what else we can do.

I don't want to go down that trail alone, it is a bit technical and i don't want to lie unconsious until my wife starts worrying if something unplanned happens Sad, so if nobody confirms and someone has a suggestion to go somewhere else (like Lane Cove) post it and I can change the plans. If nobody comes i may go to Menai that i know where i get into Smiling

Mid week Menai NIGHT ride

Below is a preview, click to read the full post
When: 
Wednesday, 28 October, 2009 - 19:46
Ride Database Entry: 
Menai (Lucas Heights)
Meeting Point: 

By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.

-34.037591,151.006672 (Old Illawarra Rd)

Menai.. at night.. A bit technical in places, a few pinch climbs here and there and some good flowing sniggle.

Not the ride for a beginner as it can be tricky in places, good lights will be needed and body armour is /optional/ advised.

Best thing, we ride at the pace of our last rider so this is a great way to stay together, see the animals out and about and most importantly not be worried about if this group is going to disappear into the distance. We're out to enjoy the "special effects" that night riding is all about.

Let's try that again...

As discussed, this is my proper first ride back after an injury, and I'm under strict instructions from He Who Must Be Obeyed that I'm not to fall off! The missus would kill me if I did anyway, but the surgeon is bigger. Not sure who I fear more. Sticking out tongue
