NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
When: 
Sunday, 16 March, 2014 - 10:00
Duration: 
2 hours
Come Rain or Shine: 
If it's raining, I won't be there.
Ride Database Entry: 
Kinross State Forest
Meeting Point: 

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.

Drive out from Orange on the Ophir Rd, before you reach the rubbish tip, turn right onto Bulgas Rd. Follow this about 2km to the forest (the road turns to gravel).

Note that the 'Directions there' google maps link below may not give the best route/destination. It seems that google maps ignores Bulgas Rd when selecting a route and gives the next closest spot. The 'Meeting point' link should be correct.

-33.269312,149.16427 (Bulgas Road carpark)
Details:
  • 2 hour multi-lap event
  • Track TBD but will probably be a 6-8km loop
  • 10am start (sign on from 9:15)
  • Multiple categories to be decided on the day depending on numbers (if you don't think you can do 2 hours then come and enter as a pair relay)
  • Drinks and sausages afterwards
  • It's all about fun so come and have a crack.

From Al:
"Kinross 2hr this Sunday at 10am. Seems like everyone is very quiet about there preparations as I have heard much back so far. We still have an opportunity for some people to help with marking up the track on Saturday arvo too. Let me know if you plan to ride and if you can help Saturday."

cheers,
Grant

Hi, I'm new to Orange but have been subscribed to your site for a little while. I would like to join this ride, hopefully with teenage son. He has had a few goes at MTB, I am beginner but should be able to withstand 2hours (just).

Do we just turn up, or do we have to complete a membership first?
