You are here
It's On
There and back again
Hi,
I know that there is another race on on Sunday and most of your are doing this. But I'm pretty keen to ride up the oaks trail and then back down it again. Riding up makes the descent much more enjoyable! Ride times will probably be 2:20(ish) up and 1:20 (ish) back down again. I did this last Sunday and it was pretty cool so I will probably go again...
Launch from the Glenbrook station, ride up the firetrail to the gate at Woodford and then enjoy the descent back down again.

Preview to Mid Mountain Tour
Hazelbrook Station
Well I wanted to do the Oaks before Andrew's night ride there. Also I can't do Carlgroover's Mid Mountain tour on Aug 12 as I have the City 2 Surf.
I will be catching the 9:23 train from Glenbrook up to Hazelbrook. If this is too late then I can move the start time forward.
We'll be doing some singletrack and then the Oaks.
Oaks at night with anderson's beforehand - cancelled
Due to injuries and equipment malfunctions this ride is postponed. Although I'm up for a local ride in the arvo.
Hi All,
That ride diary is very full! So I'd better post this one for the diaries...
The aim is to hit the oaks / helipad at dusk. Therefore one lot of us will probably start the Anderson's track about a few hours beforehand and if you want to we can meet up with you at Woodford station and then do the oaks. Well get some proper times up closer to the date
Good lights are essential.

Lisdale XC
In lieu of the postponed Mini DW another plan is here...
Lisdale State Forest. XC track, plus some exploration of the stuff south of the highway. Word is there's loads of sniggle in there. Looking at a map there's plenty of fire trail at least, so we can ride that for some Ks then cross to the XC circuit for some fun later.
Forecast at this point is cold (literally freezing early on), but sunny later. Max 12C, so bring your layers.
Careflight Classic 2007

- "Ride" starts at 10am and ends in Euroka

Anderson-Oaks-St Helenas
Glenbrook carpark-opposite train station
Due to some requests this ride is now happening on Anzac day.
The plan is catch the train to Wentworth Falls, ride the Anderson fire trail back to Woodford,then travel about 4km down the Oaks fire trail & turn off onto the St Helenas track following it all the way back to Glenbrook. Should work out around 60km I hope.
This is mostly fast fire trail with the usual ups & downs you expect in the mountains,until the start of the St Helenas track, I havent riden the St Helenas track so this part will be a bit of an exploration.
