Well after a combination of mechanical issues and poor timing, I'm booked and excited to dust off the hard tail again for Kempsey! Only made it to Ourimbah earlier in the year- better late than never I guess. Currently trying to rustle up some fellow HT die hards to hopefully get more than just a couple of entries into the category!
Also my fist time in Kempsey- always great to tick another place off the ride list. Looking to head up there the week before for a sticky beak.

Your no show at Killi meant the only other guy willing to sign up on one took the win
he seemed genuinely stoked though and his time was still good!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hamish can't the afford to not race in vets (sitting 3rd) otherwise I'm sure he'd bring his Avanti hardtail out for a brappp... Hehe!
You'll love kempsey mate!
I can't make the race but I'd hitch hike a lift to come check the trails the week before if you're heading through Newcastle

Not really signposted, but hard to get lost. Fire road back to the top each time. Jump on the kmorc page and save the trail map to your phone.
You coming to the race?

The club do a social ride on a Saturday at 2pm or this weekend there will be people out playing with the tracks that can show you around. Start at the golf club and someone will show up if you're unsure about where to ride, otherwise from the golf club carpark look west and you will see the trail head, follow your nose there after.
We have a north coast XC round this Sunday from 10-1, using the trails from 5 ways back to the golf club. But if you head up triple dippers to the start area you can follow your nose down the trails from there. You're welcome to ride Sunday, just watch out for lycra clad climbers.
Here are some maps that may help your "direction muscle". I believe a few sharks will be stalking the forest this weekend also.
XC trail Sunday July 31
Superflow trails August 6 & 7

Yes sir I am! I'll save those maps like you said- especially now we have the race runs.

Weather gods shine down
Weather gods are being generous for round 5 at Kempsey this weekend, a nice sprinkle mid week will make the tracks perfect. With the hard surface of Kempsey one day after rain and the trails are good to ride again. Any rain will clear the marbles and loose parts away leaving the hard surface ready to rock.

Looks like Kempsey is in gods country, 22mm overnight, bit more today and we're done. This is near perfect for Saturday, stay inside today give your bike some loving and come on up. To give you some more adrenaline, Friday night at the Kempsey showground in Khanacross night. Get the Datsun out of the shed, put the bike rack on and get into it.
