Meet top of Shaft St Lithgow
Usual Tuesday Night social ride. Meet top of Shaft St Lithgow
Up H-walls down Town Houses, Back up and down CH 6
Night ride - Glenbrook to the Oaks
Glenbrook Park. In the small car park opposite the shops.
Night ride - Glenbrook to the Oaks(the middle gate) via Euroka and Bennetts Ridge firetrail, return on the single track.
Mt York Shuttles
Camping / parking area at far end of Mt York Rd. This is also the start of Coxs. From Mt Vic, head west on the hwy for a few minutes, then turn right at the servo (Mt York Rd). Follow this to the end.
This is a MT York shuttle day. We should be able to do 3 or 4 laps.
Trail Options
There are 4 trails that head down the escarpment from Mt York Rd: Coxs, Lockyers, Lawsons and Berghoffers. I recommend that we do a couple of laps of Lockyers, then we can try Coxs if we want some variety. The other two aren't generally as good when you have a choice like we do.
Trail Grades/Bike Choice
Of the two, Lockyers is longer, Coxs is steeper.
Scribblies revisited
At Scribbles
Hey guys,
Noticed that there is no rides on this weekend so who would like to join Hector and myself for a couple of laps at Scribblies?
Cheers
Andrei
Nocturnal Grose Head South
Winmalee shopping centre, Whitecross Rd, Winmalee.
OK, it's time for a GHS night ride methinks. Meet in the car park at the front of the Winmalee shopping centre for a 1900hrs start.
Along Hawkesbury Rd to Halcyon St for the sniggle before the fire trail. Out to the lookout at Grose Head South (to enjoy the view in the darkness), and then down Bees Nest Hill into the swamp, for the ascent up to Whitecross Rd and back to the shops. Lovely.
All abilities welcome, as pace will be social-ish.

CTMBC tuesday night social 1-6-10
From Lithgow head on the Western Highway toward Bathurst. After 10-11Km you will head uphill and see thick pine forest to the right. It's dual carriageway here, and there's a right turn across the other lane into Forest Ridge Drive (signposted and a sealed road). About 50m on the left there's a turning where you can park in the shade. There's also an old concrete section of the highway just past there with masses of parking.
Usual Tuesday night social ride.
Lidsdale State Forest
Come play in the mud, it's good for your complexion. or something..

O.K. ladies and gentelmen, it is time we headed west into Flynny territory, the wonderful lidsdale xc track, dont be fooled, it is not just xc, this place has gap jumps, double jumps, good fast downhill sections, and also downhill technical riding into the mix, a couple of lungbusting climbs all in the confines of the state forest, you will have the smell of pine in your nostrils!.
With a little luck we might be able to get Flynny to come out and lead us around!
I know this is a long drive but it is a must on any bike riders to do list!
