Where to ride around Lithgow

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hey guys I have a few days coming up in Lithgow and I'm keen to ride a few different trails, preferably single track.

Rydal - I'm pretty sure I will ride there due to the ease of the trail (the boy will like that).

Hassans Walls - The videos I've seen of Hassans Walls look good, but I'm not sure what the best trails are? I ride a 6" travel bike so a bit of rough descending is great but I also like XC.

Newnes/Newnes Plateau - What is the pick of the single track in Newnes/Newnes Plateau? And are the Enduro Loops XC Enduro or Gravity Enduro?

Mudgee singletrack (now with pics)

I'm in Mudgee this weekend visiting friends. They mentioned that they'd read in the paper that the council had approved some mountain bike trails so I chucked my bike in the ute hoping to get a ride or two in. I'm glad I did as the trails here are great. There are trails everywhere in the area and I definitely didn't ride them all. The ground is a mixture of loose shail and hard pack which makes it interesting especially some of the climbs, and there is a lot of climbing! You're more than rewarded for the climbs by some awesome downhill sections.

A few people have been asking about doing another order for club kit. I have some Jerseys and shorts left over from the first order at the introductory pricing that haven't been collected/paid for so I'd like to get rid of them first.

What we have left is.

XC Jersey $80

L -2
Xl -1 left 1 to Kilaton

Bib short $100
m- 1

DH Jersey $80
L- 1

DH Short $120
xl- 1
L - 2

Pricing has gone up a little so next lot will be slightly more expensive

CTMBC tent city for Rydal 8hr

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

OK a few of us will be setting up pop shade under the big tree same place as last year.

Garry has a 6 x3, I have a 6x3, Barnsie has a 3x3 so there is a bit of room for others and i would be great to get a CTMBC crew together

We are going to mark out the space Friday Arv and then set the tents us Saturday.
If anyone want to add a tent please let me know and we'll make sure we reserve some space. Otherwise just bring chairs and stuff and crowd on in.

track extension

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Went out to Rydal today for the first time in about 1 month due to injuries . Came across track extension and tried to ride , dont know if I was riding the hard way or the easy way if there was one . Due to complete lack of fitness and riding time did it really hard and had to walk a lot . Was wondering how much this adds to the distance and can it be joined into one big loop , did enjoy it , had a nice walk .

Great trails

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

You guys have some great tracks around here. You've obviously got some very dedicated trail fairies around your way!

I visit the Central West (Mudgee, Dubbo, Orange, Bathurst and Lithgow) from Sydney about once a month with work and bring my bike when I can. I've riden Geurie, Kinross and Rydal and am going to try Mugga Hill out in a few weeks time. What's it like? Is it similar to the other 3 tracks? I'm just wondering which bike to bring.

Thanks,
Jason

Hello,

I have just moved to Orange and am wondering where some DH trails are? And whether they are legal or not? Am happy to help with trail building or clubs.
