Lake Canobolas MTB Park - Build day #1
Front gate.
Lake Canobolas Road.
The entrance gate is almost directly across from the entrance to Lake Canobolas.
Please DO NOT park on the side of the road here, if the gate is shut then park at the Lake and walk/ride across.
Its finally here!
We are planning on starting (completing?) the first 3km of track at the new Lake Canobolas Mountain Bike Park. So if you currently ride at Kinross and want to give something back, here is your chance. A couple of us have been busy marking out a whole section of track and now have the go ahead to start digging.
So save the date and spread the word to anyone who has two hands ie send this email on to other MTBers not on this list. I know it is on the same day of the running festival but even if you are running the Marathon you should be finished in plenty of time.
We are hoping that a the end of the day we will be able to ride a nice 3km loop, though this may be ambitious.
It would be good if you could arrive at the start because there will be a site safety induction required before you enter. But if you can't we can run you through it when you arrive. Check back here to confirm a start time, it will probably be 9am.
IMPORTANT
Because of strict WHS obligations you *must* have a broad brimmed hat and long sleeves and long pants to be able to work - Council will be enforcing this!.
Also bring some water (especially if you have just run a marathon in the morning - though surely no one except Scott will be doing that).
We are planning to have a BBQ as well on the day. More detail will be available here later.
It's usually a really fun day so save the date.

We'll back to you... we were hoping to know our kids policy at the end of last week.
Kids are welcome as long as they are closely supervised and adhere to the sun safe policy (hats, long pants and shirt).
See you Sunday!
G'day, so I missed the messages on the previous working bee (and I was away, anyway) but I'm a willing worker, and love good s/t and have some experience in designing and building, so count me in for the next one, please
Sorry you missed it. I think there'll be plenty more.
We will squeeze in some on Wednesday arvos until daylight savings ends:
