We'll be riding this track
http://ctmbc.net/node/14865

and looking for best suggestions to name it

Cross country will take place in the morning. we'll need help timing XC and setting up for the DH.
If you turn up at the DH area and we're running late and quick rake of the trail would be nice.
also if someone could pick up the cables from the XC area and get them run out while you are waiting it will make things easier.

Ride Database Entry: 
Lidsdale State Forest
Meeting Point: 

From Lithgow head on the Western Highway toward Bathurst. After 10-11Km you will head uphill and see thick pine forest to the right. It's dual carriageway here, and there's a right turn across the other lane into Forest Ridge Drive (signposted and a sealed road). About 50m on the left there's a turning where you can park in the shade. There's also an old concrete section of the highway just past there with masses of parking.

A nice early morning ride in the mountains this will be a medium paced training style ride with minimal stops.

The ride is the standard Oaks up and back with an extra detour further up the mountains to stretch the total ride out to about 70km or so.

Estimated time in the saddle is 4.5 hours.
