All Mountain Tracks NSW and ACT - Suggestions?
Hi All,
Sorry if this is posted to the wrong place.
My brother and I have the luxury (or lack of forward thinking) to be jobless at the moment. We both quit our jobs, and for the short term, just want to ride.
We're about a month in, and looking to expand our usual riding selections. I'm pretty sure we hit the most common. We hit Ourimbah most commonly, then Awaba or Manly / Hornsby for a quick strap.
Stuff like the gravity enduro / downhill sections are definitely our preference (eg, we loved Stromlo when we visited). Any good suggestions? Happy to drive a couple of hours.
SRAM Singletrack Mind Series Round 5
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
The SRAM Singletrack Mind Series features six mountain bike endurance events, of 7 or 8 hours duration. They will take you to six different locations in NSW and ACT, each one renowned for its flowing singletrack and fun factor.
The new course at Rydal was a great hit with competitors last year, with its serpentine singletrack and fantastic event centre at Rydal Showground. The great crew from Central Tablelands MTB Club and the Rydal community are looking forward to welcoming us back in 2012.

Central West Off-Road Bicycle Club have been instrumental in developing a large network of trails close to Orange in Kinross State Forest. They'll be providing a purpose-built enduro loop for the race, and with the wide range of options for accommodation and gourmet food in Orange, this is an event not to be missed!
