Suggestions for ride
Hello,
I currently run the swimming coaching for swimmers in the Blue Mountains and am hoping to organise some off road rides that my group of teenage swimmers can do on a roughly monthly basis for summer.
The group will be based at Glenbrook and I am generally looking at rides on Saturday mornings or afternoons before or after their swimming training. Unfortunately I know very little about off road riding so any advice, tips or ideas on how to plan and prepare for something like this would be appreciated.

Moving from San Francisco Bay Area California to Sydney - Seeking information
Greetings mates. I'm not sure if this is the right Club to post this message on. Please let me know if there are other Clubs you think this message would be appropriate to. I just did a search of Sydney Mountain Bike Clubs and chose this one to make my first post.
"It’s a 3D printer that prints in titanium"
It's interesting where the "printed" world his heading.

Did anyone notice TrailFlix has gone?
Just wondering if anyone else had noticed that TrailFlix has gone.
There was a message up last week saying that they had decided to close the site down.
Seems a real shame, there was lots of good information on there for different rides etc. It was also a great resource for people new to cycling and MTB, I can remember my mate reading from some notes he printed off while on a new ride some years back.
Mt York - Need your guidance
Howdy peeps.
Long time no post.
I was wondering if anyone could give me a few pointers for Mt York. I'm looking to go up there on Sat. We want to ride up Lawsons's Long Alley from the pub then down Lockyers.
Is riding up Lawson's a straight forward affair, or is there anything special we need to look out for.
Anyone is welcome to join of course.
Cheers
Andrei

I've been wondering
Glenbrook National park - Police rescue and emergency
Was riding the national park tonight and noticed a lot of emergency vehicles in the park after hours. Tried to ask a young police officer at the entry to the park on our way out but he wouldn't give an answer. It looked serious - two ambos, police rescue and several police cars. At least 3 vehicles passed us when we were coming into the park and 4 more on the way out. We rode up part of the oaks and then back down and it looked like they were out Red hands way.
Anyone have any idea what happened?
