From there we'll be riding the 17km Oaks Fire trail b ack down the blue mountains. At the end of this fire trail we are treated to 7km of intermediate difficulty single track back down to Glenbrook. Wit hout any major hiccups we should be back at Glenbrook station in the early afternooon. The trail is mostly downhill but does have a few short climbs and is about 24km in total.\n\n \;\n\nWhilst some prior mountain biki ng experience will help\, the Oaks Trail is a great place for beginners wh o want to give the sport a first try. Feel free to message me on facebook if you have any questions about this.\n\n \;\n\n[caption id="attachmen t_12413" align="aligncenter" width="489"] Oaks Fire and Single Track from Woodford back down to Glenbrook[/caption]\n\n \;\n\nWhat you'll need:\ n\n A mountain bike - PLEASE check that your bike is working BEFORE you a rrive on Sunday's trip.\n\n Especially important on this trip because we don't want to miss the 9:27 train\, next one is an hour later\, because we are busying fixing someones bike.\n Unfortunately\, the club does not ha ve mountain bike for use. Ask a friend if you can borrow theirs if if you' re really keen to come along.\n\n\n A bicycle helmet - not a rock climbin g helmet :)\n Food - Enough snacks to get you through a few hours of ridi ng till the afternoon\n Water - Enough water to keep you hydrated\, espec ially if it's a warm day\n Spares - Always good to carry some basic spare s for your bike\, e.g. tube\, pump\, patch kit.\n A keen attitude for a g reat ride\n\nI will set up a messenger group chat for those on the trip du ring the week. Message me if you have any questions. And let me know any m ountain biking experience you have in the signup comment below (also so I know you actually read this info).\n\n \;\n\nNote: this trip is weathe r dependent so we'll be keeping an eye on rain and the forecast throughout the week. Also\, the last signup spot is for a waiting list only\, not an actual spot.\n\n \;\n\nKeen to see you all there.
