Something different Tuesday Night ride
Top of Shaft St Lithgow
OK Numbers have been down a bit at Rydal the last couple of tuesdays so trying to keep things interesting I thought we'd mix things up a bit and this week do a social ride on Hassans walls
Meet at the top of Shaft St Lithgow at 6.30.
Ride will consist of 2 loops with different descents. So you can opt out after 1 or go up again for a second.
Tracks will depend on who comes and who is keen for what and how we are going for time. Town houses, then Ch 6 or DonnyBrook would be my pick.
The trails have short technical sections but we will pull up and point them out.

Dirty Duathlon - Off road run/ride 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.
In June we are combining with the Orange Triathlon club to put on a 'Dirty Duathlon'. This will combine off road running with off road riding.
We tried this last year but got washed out.
I have a feeling that us mountain bikers will be catching people during the bike leg so take it easy and be nice as you pass. Especially as the tri-athletes will be catching us again on the run 
Have a think about what shoes and pedals to use and as you will switch. These tri-athletes are used to swapping shoes quick and we have to try and not be humiliated too much
Duathlon Details
We will hold the following races starting at 10:00am:
. Juniors 400m run 1km bike 400m run

CTMBC General Meeting
The main rd in has been dusty as all get up so in an effort to keep on the good side of the locals it might be best to come in via the showground.
From the highway come into Rydal, cross the train tracks and take a left before the Pub (Showground signposted.)
Go around the top side of the show ground and follow the road around to the left. This will take you around towards the top side of the cemetery. from there a couple of cross rd will bring you back tot he bicentennial trail and thus the car park
General meeting after the race (During the BBQ)
