When: 
Sunday, 8 January, 2017 (All day)
Come Rain or Shine: 
I'll be there, no matter what the weather.
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:

Australia's best are soon coming to Orange to destroy our KOM times at Kinross forest.

The nationals aren't only for the elite riders, come and join in the race and enjoy our local trails at Kinross Forest.

I assume that this is subject to change for whatever reason that may come up.
Note that each loop will have an extra couple of hundred meters added around the start/finish area
