Rydal track maintenance
Passed the old car park near the whoops, over the hill there is a car park on the right. That's where I'll be
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
Bit of work to start getting the trail back up to scratch for the return of tuesday nights soonish and the 3hr next month.
bring bikes, wheel barrows, shovels, rakes, sense of humour, blah blah blah
CTMBC Tuesday Night Social. MT York
Bottom of Berghoffers Pass (Stock pile at the bottom of Mt Vic pass)
I still think the trails on MT york provide some of the best mountain biking in the state with a little bit of everything thrown in.
There are some steep climbs, there are some techi bits, there are some fast flowy grin from ear to ear bits.
The first little climb up to the gate on Berghoffers is a challenge but only short. From there Berghoffers (which was put in as a easier bypass for early motor vehicles) winds up gently to meet up with MT York Road.
Anyone who want to can meet us up at the top Berghoffer car park at around 6:50pm
CTMBC Tuesday Night Social. Bathurst Bike Park 28th July
This is Off College Rd, You'll see a gate on the left just before the Dump
With the cold creeping in and race numbers dwindling we're going back to social rides of a Tuesday Night. These are a great chance to get out and experience some of the other great trail we have in our area and sometimes further afield.
First stop. The Bathurst bike park.
Those who haven't ridden it, you don't know what you are missing. Fun trails, big berms and interesting obstacles.
The Bathurst crew did a great job getting the trail ready and virtually cathead free for the Evo-cities so now is the perfect time to ride it

Back to rydal this week
The plan is to head back out the far side then come back and complete a loop of the main trail. For those thinking it might be too far there are a couple of options
a) Join us at the start but stay on the main trail and do a lap your self
ii) meet us over at the corner of link road/ Coxs river trail and just do the far single trail.
3) start later and try and catch us out the back of the main trail on our way back
