They had neither the expertise or resources to get this project up and and running...straight up bad faith and misrepresentationI didn't read into it as being done in bad faith. Just bad decisions, putting too much faith in an MOU, or inexperience in managing such projects.
Getting an MOU from the landowner was probably a good idea, but it doesn't mean squat if you don't get the lease itself signed and govt approvals. To me, saying the landowner changed things on them when time came to put pen to paper on the lease agreement and the council approvals suggests the landowner might have relaised they weren't getting enough $$ for their effort/interest. Maybe this means they were getting the rough end of the stick, or maybe it means the project was less than viable from the start.
Now, whether they continued to run a campaign to crowdsource funding for their legal bills after they realised it wasn't likely to get off the ground... who knows?
I've been meaning to get there and it's only 15 minutes from home. It is far from being a big draw card for serious rider coming from Sydney though. Its 12km of mostly green and blue trails. There are some jumps though, I'm not sure how werious that will be.not quite sydney but close enough. seems theres a nice new track in wollongong

@LPG - I'm currently involved in some too and fro regarding some local jumps, can you give me a bit of an idea on what denotes a werious jump please? I don't want to look out of touch.There are some jumps though, I'm not sure how werious that will be.
In all weriousness, if you don't know by now you really shouldn't be involved in jumps in the first place.@LPG - I'm currently involved in some too and fro regarding some local jumps, can you give me a bit of an idea on what denotes a werious jump please? I don't want to look out of touch.
There's no need to be mean about my lack of dirt jump knowledge. I'm just trying to grow.In all weriousness, if you don't know by now you really shouldn't be involved in jumps in the first place.
Don't play the victim here, you are bullying me because I type with a wisp!There's no need to be mean about my lack of dirt jump knowledge. I'm just trying to grow.
Barely a wisp of dignity!Don't play the victim here, you are bullying me because I type with a wisp!
I`ve not ridden it yet , maybe next week , but whoever is in that article ( can`t see as its blocked behind a paywall ) saying it will be better than Appin is a big stretch . I`ll report back once I`ve ridden it . I will say though , It is great we have this here and I hope they will allow Wollongong mountain bike club to have a home .not quite sydney but close enough. seems theres a nice new track in wollongong
