Yellowmundee XC Entertainment
There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.
Here is one of the nicest XC courses around and it's paticularly nice in the late afternoon.
There is nothing really hard about the track, other than the usual difficulties one would experience on a track they've never been on before. It gets a bit tight in places and some trees are known to leap out in front of those not paying attention.
The climbs aren't overly tough and the descents are rather straight forward. A good place for the less experienced.
Ride pace will be medium.
Oaks Up and Back Twilight Ride
Glenbrook station carpark.
With this 24hr thing on the 14th and my current state of panic about my roid boy team I am planning to ride the Oaks up and back at twilight on Saturday 7th at about 6pm (like Paul did at Christmas). I am very hopeful that someone else will come along since I don’t really want to ride it on my own and would probably get lost, even though as we all know it’s an easy trail to find…
The Oaks noob ride
Glenbrook station carpark.
Planning on taking a work colleague up to do The Oaks ride. This will be very easy paced and suitable for less experienced or less fit riders who are wanting to "do the oaks". All are welcome of course.
We catch the train from Glenbrook (8:23) up to Woodford (8:54)and ride back to the carpark. Train ticket is required so bring a few $$$.
It's approx 30Km of mostly fire trail with an excellent single trail at the end and of course a very very testing hill riding out back to the car park.
Bring plently of water, sunscreen, spares and food to get through.
WWS #1 Lithgow
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.
Hopefully entries will be up ASAP
Yellowmundee - Sandwiches and Pop
There's a car park (click for foggy picture) on Springwood Road - just down the way from Hawkesbury Heights if you're looking for a suburb name.
Just an explore as I haven't been here before, so if anyone is up for a ride and knows the way all the better.
Pace will be nice and easy, bring sandwiches and pop. All welcome.

Merry Chirstmas Nobs. Jeeten and I wanted to ride somewhere new and exciting...Yellowmundee got the pick. We'll be going for a casual ride and we'd be happy to have some more company. However, the pace will be steady and riders should have moderate experience so we can all enjoy the technical parts of the trail. I have room to give one person a lift out there from around the northern beaches.
Oaks Up and Back - Twilight to Night Ride
Glenbrook station carpark.
Possibly the last night ride of the year
Starting a 6.00pm we will riding up The Oaks reaching the top as the sun is setting - 27k and 70% climbing (this will probably take 2 hours to 2.5 hours).
Once at the top we will be turning around and riding back down in the dark - 27k and 70% downhill (about 1.5 hours). Those who only want to ride down can meet us at the top.
You will need good lights (preferrably charged), a reasonable level of fitness, and a beer for post ride.
