Rydal track prep working bee
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
OK we need to do a basic tidy up for the 8hr.
Unfortunately I'm way this weekend but if others could head on out and give the trail a once over that would be great.
Just needs a bit of a rake and a clean. Maye start bunting to define corners and block straightlines.
I noticed a big pile of rubbish beside the track behind the cemetery. Not sure which low life dumped it there but if we can get it cleaned up it would be good as it's not a good look right beside our track.
If you can't make this time feel free to drop out anytime you have chance.

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.
Just a general maintenance of trails.
We'll start by removing some logs at the start of "Eat at Joe's".
Clean up
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.
Got to clean up all the bunting and remove the signs so if any one is free to lend a hand I'll be out there with the kids
