All welcome.

Will see which trail we want to ride by consensus on the day. I fancy the red, but happy with a couple laps of the blue. Good for some training miles.

Meet will be at the benches by the trailhead at 11am. I'll be leaving on the 9:20 southwest train out of Waterloo on a silver zesty fs with a mate on a gleaming new white giant hardtail. Just listen for some nasally antipodean accents :P

So far we have:
Me (Nick) + 1 (Whitey)
netheo86 (Dan)
catalanfc (Vincent)

Post up if you're keen. Cheers see ya there!!!

Mate I spent most of my time trying to keep your back tire in sight - should be us saying thanks hahah.

what did you think of Swinley? I reckon the red trail is fun, but lots of discounted parts make it too fragmented for my liking. definitely worth the trip, but it lacks a bit of flow.

I hear what you're saying with the lack of flow, it would be better without the bits on fire roads, I really enjoyed Swinley though, I think there is a lot to discover especially on the steep section at the back of the red loop.
