There's a thread on this in the trail building section. Essentially the government are about to set to work on the Isaacs Ridge Mountain Bike Trail Network Upgrade community consultation and trail management plan.

I've been lucky enough to be asked to be involved in pulling this plan together. Keep an eye our for the release of the Isaac's Ridge Mountain Bike Trail Network Upgrade community consultation and trail management plan in early August. Focus will be on Down Hill but the planning will...

Was great to meet many folks at Nerang on Friday re the Commonwealth Games. Hopefully we can deliver something particularly special
