From the highway come into Rydal and take a sharp left after crossing the railway. Follow the dirt road up past the houses. *Please* Be mindful of the locals, they bought places here to get away from the rat race so take it slow and keep noise to a minimum.
At the top of the hill take the left fork and follow the road past the cemetery.
With thanks to Stella Maris Mining Services and Centennial Coal we will be continuing the weekly Tuesday night races on the new trail at Rydal.
Back to $5 entry fee this week

Knapsack, In and around
North Gate, Barnet St
I plan to get there a little early and do a spider web sweep on a short section of trail b4 we ride it.
Parking is available either side of the gate on Barnet St, Parking is also available at the Skate park and Glanbrook Shops. This meeting spot is next to a residential area so volume will need to be kept minimal.
This social ride is an open invite so out of towners are welcome.
Ride is as discussed. Approx 15kms taking around 2hrs depending on Chat and regrouping time.
Im limiting the group size to 10 to keep regrouping at a minimal.
If we are feeling well and have time when we are next to the RAAF base. We can add an extension of riding.

Mt York Sunday Morning
Mt York Road, in Mount Victoria. You could probably park anywhere along here, and there's a decent sized area (with camping I believe) at the end of this road. That said, the junction with Berghoffer Drive/Lockyers seems the most sensible suggestion.
I know there is already a Knapsack ride on Sunday morning (sorry Andrea).
But Todd and I have been talking about Mt York at the same time so Ill post it up anyway. If anyone wants to join us we are meeting in the gravel carpark, GWH on the right after passing through Mt Vic where the council workers park apparently.
I can't remember what direction we're taking but Todd said an hr up uphill first so those who know the area will know what that means.
Best bet is to PM or ring Todd for directions as that's what Ill be doing.
Cheers,
Ian
Knapsack Sunday Morning
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.
I can't make it to the Saturday morning ride due to work commitments, so I'll be heading out Sunday instead. Feel free to join me..
