Balmain / Rozelle group?

Things I learnt today:
1) There is a bit more singletrack around than I knew of
2) Some of it is pretty steep
3) My camera is loyal to me, and will refuse to focus when I'm about to do something embarrassing

Hey PiE ... would you mind editing your OP to change the name ... just a little less obvious ... soz to be paranoid

Sorry Nerf, I'm out. But very interested to see these features you speak of! Will you be free any evening next week?

 

[Nerf Herder]

Wednesday is prolly the best chance of getting out ... but I tend to head to Manly Dam ?? Try for next week if a few of you are available.

Also apologies, forgot I'll be at Menai Build day on Saturday ... meh sorry to keep piking

 

[PiE]

Can't edit title I'm afraid!

I'm usually around weekends, if you see a guy on a blue Giant Reign grab me.

Sydney MTB

Hi guys,

I started a club exactly for this after I moved to the suburban surrounds of Sydney. Come join us over at http://sydneymtb.asn.au we are currently looking at adopting a track as close as possible to the city. I'd love to let my 1000+ group members know about this and help with council approval etc.

Edit: we have almost 1000 group members in our facebook group.

 

[AzonicNick]

Awesome, let me know if the ride is going ahead in the morning, I'll come across and join you guys.

 

[Nerf Herder]

Sorry, I have a bmorc trail day tomorrow . Apologies guys

 

[rmvvwls]

The jumps seem to have grown somewhat...

 

[Luco]

That's a pretty significant difference!
Did you give them a go?

 

[rmvvwls]

I wanted to try out the second one in that photo, but whoever enlarged the jumps didn't allow enough room for a decent roll in. Add to that I ride a 29er and they're not a very gradual ramp, no I didn't.

I'm considering taking a shovel down and making a secondary line next to each one with a more gradual ramp.

Is this in the bush behind Le montage and around liechardt oval? anyone have a strava? Interested to see if its worth the drive.
