The Blue Mountains Off Road Cyclists. Environmentally Sustainable Recreational Cycling.

Welcome

Welcome to the website for the Blue Mountains Off Road Cyclists (BMORC)

The BMORC is a group of mountain bike riders in the Blue Mountains NSW.

We aim to bring riders together, from beginners to professional, and provide a social link to discover different locations and meet new people. As we are not a MTB club there are no organised races or fees. BMORC also has a great interest in trail advocacy.

So join the forums and watch out for rides in the calendar or organise a ride yourself. The more people who get involved the better for all.

Recenlty I took part in the Jet Black 24hr held at Mount Annan Botanical Gardens. The Gardens had an important message to share with everyone. The images shown are the posters that were up at the event. This is extremly important and every mountain biker should be aware.

Blue Mountains Gazette - "Penrith mayor 'happy' to consider cycleway"

Article in the gazette about the progress on the plan for a cycleway up the hill. I know this isn't off-road, but it is something a lot of riders could use in their day to day life.

Penrith Mayor Greg Davies said he was happy to work alongside Blue Mountains City Council (BMCC) on plans for a cycleway from Lapstone to Leonay.

Preliminary discussions have been held between Penrith City Council and BMCC since the proposal was put forward by Blue Mountains Mayor Daniel Myles and Deputy Mayor Mark Greenhill earlier this month.

While Clr Davies said he had yet to speak to local representatives on the issue, a meeting attended by a Penrith City Council traffic engineer had been held and work was under way to cost the proposal.

“We have had some preliminary discussions,” Clr Davies told the Gazette.

“[We are] looking at a number of options. Blue Mountains City Council was going to take them away and come back with costings.

“We have not dealt with it as a council, however.”

Cancelled - Knapsack Ride, BBQ, Info day 27th Nov 2011

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Note, this is cancelled due to the weather of the last week. Looks like it will be wet right up to the day as well so things won't get to dry out.

As we get closer to the time where decisions will need to be made, we thought it was time to get people back on their bikes and understanding what the tracks might actually look like, have a bit of a social ride with a potential BBQ.

BMORC Members Working with NPWS on Oaks Single Track Maintenance

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Last Sunday several BMORCers received some instructional training working on some of the drainage issues on the Oaks single track with the NPWS.

David Croft who is involved with the NPWS RNP trail maintenance came up and gave us his time to show his expertise in the area. A few areas were fixed with plans to take crews out in the future to tackle more sections. Some may well remember David's posts on Farkin when he was employed in Canada on some serious trail work.
