Orange MTB - Kinross Club XC Race
The city of Orange is around 4 hrs from Sydney and 3 hrs from Canberra. Kinross State Forest is situated on the northeast edge of town, a 10 minute drive or 20 minute ride from the Orange town centre.
Meet at the Bulgas Road carpark, Western edge of the forest. Some events are held at the alternative race hub near the top of the north Shore track.
***Cancelled*** - it's too wet. Having just played soccer I can report that the weather is horrible and wet and wet and windy and I think a race tomorrow won't be any fun to organise or ride in. It will also probably rip up the tracks. The forecast does not give any confidence that it will dry out much before tomorrow. If it's looking not too bad then some of us might go out for just a relaxed social ride at the same time (10am). But maybe not too If we do meet at the car park.
**************************
Club XC race. Come and warm up in the forest! The course will be the same as last month.
See here for info about our races.
We have decided on the track for this weekends race. This course will cater well for all levels of riders, from juniors to elite.
The track is 2-3km long. You'll have options for the number of laps to complete.
The start will be at the near the top of the 'North Shore' track. When you arrive at the forest on Bulgas Rd, keep following Bulgas Rd past the 'normal' car park to the top of the hill then turn left. There is room to park along the fire trail there, the start/finish will be about 50m from Bulgas Rd. Note the meeting point link in google maps above.
Description of the provisional track:
- Berm Me Up Scotty in reverse
- Goat Track Extension in reverse (to dead pig dam)
- Bogan's run in reverse (downhill)
- back up the fire road to the start/finish.
