    NSW Castle Hill

    Has there been any developments on this proposal? I live in West Pennant Hills and know of an area which has very little use and could accomodate a 10k loop. I think its owned by the M2 and already has a 4.5k loop XC loop. This place has excellent potential, awesome terrain, fire road...
