Kinross Forest - Trail maintenance
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.
To make sure that our trails are in good nick for the big Single Track Mind 7hr Race on the 29th April (the following weekend) we are looking for helpers to come out to work on a few sections of track Sunday morning.
There's also a few bits of illegally dumped rubbish that would be good to remove too.
If anyone knows of any spots on the STM track that need work then let us know. On the whole the track is riding pretty well but we might as well have a crack.
I believe we mostly need to work on:
- The top of "Bogan's run" just before dead pig dam
Mt York Monday
Bottom of Mt Vic pass
Social ride up Bergoffers pass, down lockyer trail, up Lawsons long alley, down Bergoffers.

Wanted: XS or S mountain bike
My niece is looking at kicking off on this thing called mountain biking.
Anyone have or know someone who has a decent small or extra small mountain bike they no longer require that doesn't need new everything? Definitiely needs to have fornt suspension, not to fussed on what type it is. Disc brakes would be good too! Doesn't absolutely need to be a ladies bike if it's the right size etc.
Andersons + Oaks
Either Glenbrook or Wentworth Falls
Am on annual leave and going to tackle Andersons + Oaks (1 way).
Will park at Glenbrook and catch the train up to Wentworth Falls.
Looking to start reasonably early in the morning, but am flexible on the time if anyone would like to come along.
Could certainly use someone who has done it before as it is my first Andersons run.

BMORC Cleans up Knapsack Park
Soccer Club house on Barnet St Glenbrook.
We ask visitors to please park here to not affect the residents. Plenty of parking plus amenities.
Short notice but here we go;
I think it would be an exellent for the local off road cyclists to put back into our comunity but cleaning up a nice bit of bush this clean up Australia day!
So I and as many others that care to join are planning on giving knapsack a bit of a spruce up, by picking up as much rubbish as possible! Everyone should come along for at least an hour or so to get the place looking nice and to show the community we care.
Trig Ride Mk2

1-ride out to the lookout( we can go via some lovely single track, or ridge ride?? )
2-start mountain climbing
3- have lunch at the trig marker
4- descend with full belly
Oaks up - Ingar up - Anderson's down - Oaks down
Glenbrook station carpark.
So who's up for 100+ km of dirt?
I've always wanted to do this classic ride in both directions (much harder going up!), and in the light of the Convict 100 in May (formerly Dirtworks) this gives me all the more reason to do such a long ride. Obviously not for the faint hearted, but any of those brave enough to join me, be my guest.
Here's how it'll go:
Leave Glenbrook 7:45, riding down to causeway, on dirt road to The Oaks and along the Oaks Firetrail. Long grind!
Hopefully reach Woodford by 9:45 & refill water
Down Murphy's Firetrail to Bedford creek (Downhill for once!)
