Clean up Australia Day @ Oxford Falls
Corner of Oxford Falls Rd & Morgan Rd. This is not the usual spot... it's at the bottom of the hill past the DH track and Lizard Rock.
I believe you have to register on the Clean Up Australia site for this. Details here:
Time for a change?
Terry Hills Tavern (Please park on the street)
OK, Time for a varied route.
We start at the Tavern heading to the showground, duck into sandy then into Pauls epiphany trail that runs low coming out behind the showground. Cut through the showground then traverse on the single track back to the Sandy trail head.
Go down on Sandy then we do Neverfail then Larool then road it back to the Tavern for a cleansing Ale!
2.5 hours is my guess with a steady pace.
Not for the beginner or unfit. (Im going as I'm the host)
A good training ride but at a social pace
social, beginners, cross country red hill ride!!!!
Red Hill Reserve car park, off Lady Penryhn Drive, Beacon Hill. Another option is to ride over here from Oxford Falls.
I know what most of you are thinking but I decided the other day that there must be people out there who haven’t ridden Red Hill because of it’s reputation...You can do a short cross country style loop – out to picnic rock and back the single track which is pretty...
Anyway, at least if I am wrong and no one turns up at least I can go and do the usual rim ride!
Menai morning fun
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
This is a social ride around what I believe to be some of the best trails in Sydney. There’ll be allot of fast flowing single track, technical descents, some tricky climbs and unfortunately some boring fire trail (but not much I promise).
The pace will be easy to medium, and there will be regular stops to make sure everyone’s together. As mentioned there are some technical descents that novices may find a bit tough, but there’s usually a ride around or there’s always the walking option.
Mt Stromlo ride to allievate the boredom of a motel room while away for work
Stromlo Carpark
As i am 1) giving 24 hours notice for this ride
2) and its mid week
3) a long way for gainfully employed Nobmobbers to come
4) i dont know all that many of you yet .....i am not expecting anyone to come , either way i am doing a couple of laps of the standard xc course and if there is any interest , i will post the ride earlier for next time as i am there often
double 40th celebration!!!
Terrey Hills Tavern
This is the 'dinner only' option! If you want to ride DH/Centre first (twice even) then see Bernd's ride here:
SO!! Both George (Gazza) and Damien are 40 within days of each other which means Nobmob gets to celebrate WITH them!!
The plan at the moment is for dinner/drinks at the Tavern on the Wednesday night after 8pm - the problem is, neither of them can decide whether there will be a ride before hand or not...

Mid week Menai - Night Ride
By the sports field on Old Illawarra Road, Barden Ridge.
Going to tackle some of Menai's less technical trails for an hour and a half to two hours. I say less technical but beginners may find it a bit tricky as nearly every trail in Menia has either a small drop, jump, rock garden or tricky climb.
The pace will be fairly easy, as most night rides are, and we'll wait for anyone who may fall behind. So there's no chance of individually getting lost.
A good night-light will be needed along with reasonable night-riding skills.
Look forward to seeing you there.
Night Ride & Dinner [Duckholes & Centre]

[Everyone welcome - suitable for newbies, too...BUT YOU NEED LIGHTS!]
See you on Wednesday at 7 PM...
Please park on the road to keep the Tavern mgmt happy in these tough economic times

Lane Cove - Novice Dusk Ride - CANCELLED
South end of Kissing Point Road. Head down the cycleway and meet at the picnic seat near the creek crossing.
Come for a tour of some of the easier riding sections of Lane Cove national park and some of the council controlled areas near it. This is a non technical ride at a slower pace. Look out for any black cats as it will be black Friday!
CANCELLED - Too WET
