You are here
Central West & Ranges
Thank you Lithgow council
We are often quick to grumble about things and I know I have been critical of council in the past but I have had some very positive dealings with them recently and with recent happens in other areas with land managers shutting trails I want to put this up as a good news story
There is this trail on Hassans Walls (The pottery trail) that starts down an old road, now this road was a bit rutted out, has several old turning circles that were havens for rubbish dumper and recently had been the target of illegal fire wood collect who drive into the bush and drag logs out.
Digging
Good little dig Yesterday.
Thanks to Garry, Roy and Phil
Rock n Road
Anyone riding the rock and road in Rydal at the weekend and got a heads up on trail conditions?
Central West NSW info needed- Kincross, Geurie (Bald Hill), Mudgee (The Common)
A bit of a 'me time' tour , so I'll be on my own and mostly during the week
So wondering if these trails are easy to find my way around
I don't have GPS or a great sense of direction
I believe Kincross is well sign posted
Not sure about the others
Any tips or info on these 3 (+ any others I may have missed) much appreciated
Also if there's any good arvo walk options between Orange, Dubbo, Mudgee
Lake canobalas mountain bike park Open yet?
Hey folks,we are planning on heading out to ride Kinross this weekend and just wondering if the lake bike park is open yet? cheers
27 jan mini dh canceled. XC will be decided later
Today's (27-01-15) mini dh canceled. With all this rain the gully will be a mud pit
We'll make a call on the XC after lunch but the trail was dry yesterday
Rydal trail work
Hey all. Track needs a bit of loving after all the storms and it's nearly impossible to get every one together so if people have spare time and feel like helping out if you can slip out with a rake an do a little here and there it would be appreciated
Things that need doing.
1. A general rake to clean all the sticks leaf litter and rocks off the trail. Tip here is to rake it off to the downward side of the trail. This prevents it washing back on and also forms a bit of a windrow that helps prevent sediment run off into the bush.
Found some old photos
Found a bunch of photos from the 2006 National DH at Lithgow
I put them in a bucket

This race almost broke me as a race organiser. I think I can finally look back on it and see the good things about it
Riding around Orange after Christmas
I am heading out to Condobolin for Christmas with my wife's family. I was thinking about doing some riding around Orange the day after boxing day.
I have only ever driven through Orange and have no idea where is best to ride.
I will be on a 4inch XC bike.
Can anyone give me some pointers as where might be best to ride??
Thanks in advance!
Orange this Saturday
Hi All,
I might be heading west to Orange for cherry picking with the family, and it seems that there are some nice trails to be ridden there as well why not kill 2 birds with one trip.
Looking at the weather observations there looks like Orange copped a bit of rain on the weekend too.
Are the the trails in a ride-able condition ?
Looks like Kinross State Forest is place to ride.
Any inputs are welcome
Cheers,
Mario
