Saturday morning ride. Probably head down Cox's then up Lockyers.
Social ride: Rydal and Surrounds
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
When the guys from Trailflix had me on their Podcast Grant expressed his disappointment that he had just discovered Lidsdale and only got to ride it the once so I invited them up to check out the new stuff at Rydal.
Anyway the dates been set as Sunday the 11th of September. They plan to meet me at the shop at 8.15 and we'll head out from there. I figure by the time every one is geared up and ready to go it's going to be closer to 9 before we get pedalling.
Ando's + Oaks
Emu Plains Station carpark (two before Glenbrook to catch an extra downhill at the end and secure a place on the train before the Oaks mob boards at Glenbrook) to catch the 08:13 train up to Wentworth Falls.
To be rescheduling after the %%$^%#$ weather reports advised about the winds scheduled, and the tracks are probably covered with fallen trees.
The pace will be "brisk social" - This will mean a couple of stops will happen at the creeks and the helipad, though besides that I want us to be able to move along at a fairly rapid pace, so it'd be preferable to ride with people with a higher degree of fitness.
Glenbrook to the Oaks
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
Glenbrook to the Oaks(the middle gate) via Euroka and Bennetts Ridge firetrail, return on the Oaks single track.
All welcome!!
Get away from the royal wedding ride
Glenbrook Carpark.
Time to get way, way away from any TV reception. Charge up those batteries and freeze our nether regions off all in the name of our sanity.
The location/route is open to suggestions but at least up to the Oaks gate and singletrack back down.
Nice Long Ride
Glenbrook station carpark.
One of my favourites - The Oaks plus detour up to Hazelbrook and then back down.
This is a long and steady training ride I am not that fit at the moment so the pace will be easy enough but with no stopping (its training not a social gathering).

Oaks Evening Cruise
Woodford train station. So you'll have to catch the 18:41 train from Glenbrock at the latest.
I'll be riding up the oaks before hand so will meet anyone wishing to join me at the head of the trail or station if preferred.
Knapsack Night Ride
Glenbrook Oval, Hare St, Glenbrook NSW. Near the skate park. Ride down Moore Street to the start of trail that leads into the main park around the gate.
We ask visitors to please park here to not affect the residents. Plenty of parking plus amenities.
