Ride Database Entry: 
Hassans Walls
Meeting Point: 

Lithgow Pony Club, Sheedies Gully, off Hassans Walls rd.
Take the Dirt rd to the left opposite Rutherford lane and then right in through pony club

-33.498545,150.153834

Ok this is for everyone who is keen to help us build the new DH trail off Hassans walls.

Some of the consent conditions are very strict so our main guys need to be inducted by Andrew Macleod from SEEEC in regards to the soil and sediment control measures that need to go into the construction and maintenance of the trail.

What to bring
Good footware, long pants recommended, food and water.

Not sure if we will be able to actually start digging but bring the standard trail tools just in case we get the go ahead.

In Tuesday's Mercury:

DOWNHILL cyclist Joel Willis is a young sportsman going places … and fast.

Although only 13 years of age, Joel races in the under 15 age division, but this has not been a setback for the talented rider having built up an impressive list of achievements for one so young.

He is now a State champion after contesting the Downhill NSW championships in Awaba after beating some of the best riders in Australia.

Knapsack DH Jumping

A variety of tracks with a mix of firetrail and technical single track. Currently a bit of a maze which allows for creating your own loop.

Also includes a legal DH Track.

Keep your eyes on this one guys as it has great significance to the local MTB scene!

Hey guys,

As you would be aware, Ku-ring-gai Council has recently put some signs up the top of the trail implying that it is an approved bike track. This is however not entirely the case. It was apparently too well built, to justify the cost of destroying it so they put the signs in as a temporary measure.
