Blue Mountains Six Foot Trail Bucket List Ride
201 Sydney Rd Fairlight
Hi Folks,
This is my first post and first time planning to ride the Six Foot Track at the Blue Mountains. I am dead keen to go, though may need at least 1 more rider and maybe one more car so we can do the course one way with a car at each end and return by late afternoon or evening of my planning is ok?
I have a large SUV, all my own gear and a 4 bike rack. This is a certainty and I am so keen. I have one other person with a 4 wheel drive who seems "close" to a certainty and probably one other, though never can be sure, so a few other would be great indeed.
Rydal
The main rd in has been dusty as all get up so in an effort to keep on the good side of the locals it might be best to come in via the showground.
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
We need to do some circle work at Rydal ... can somebody post up where I should head please 
Social Saturday
Glenbrook dirt car park opposite shops
A couple of us are doing the coat hanger, this will be very casual, feel free to join us. Just look for the tandem.
Falconbridge Point/Gross Road Lookout
The gate at the end of Gross Road
A quick but social ride to the point.
BMORC Christmas Bash
Meet at Hazelbrook carpark behind the shops.
Lets have a bit of a bash around Lazo and then head to the Thai restaurant for some bench racing.
All Welcome! (Hopefully we can make it back without lights but you never know)
Just a heads up for anyone coming up the Mountains may want to leave a bit early due to the Christmas rush. Good idea to turn left off the highway at Station Street, Woodford and come up the back way if possible.
Strava run.
Meet at Woodford Train Station to catch the train up to Wentworth Falls.
Although the keen can combine this with The Oaks in which case you'll want to meet down at Glenbrook.
Andoaks flat out. Earn your Christmas dinner.
Someone whinged that there weren't enough rides in the calendar
The ride begins proper at the gate on Grose Road. This is about 3.4km from the junction with the highway and 450m from the junction with Jennings Road (bear left here on the way out). There is 850m of gravel road to drive to the gate.
So I put a ride in the calendar.
Meet at the gate before the trail starts proper. I'll be riding from home so if anyone doesn't know where said gate is I can meet you at Springwood High school (on Grose rd) a little earlier and ride up.
We'll be going for a social lap or two and then maybe a quick lap afterwards.
If it's raining (or has been raining) I won't be there. After the weather we've had this past year I'm sick of being wet and even sicker of washing bikes.
CTMBC Pre Christmas Ride
Bottom of Mt Vic pass
Ok this is a bit more full on and probably not suited for the kids.
Some awesome MTB trails though. Real MTB with up hills and down hills, some challenging sections and some very fun sections. Some pushing.
Anyway thought we'e make a day of it. get out for a blast at Mt York before grabbing the kids and heading to Rydal http://ctmbc.net/node/39362
