The XC club race shown on the calendar for May 27th has been cancelled. The committee members are all heavily involved in the organisiation and running of the Paterson Kona 24 hour race in May, and have decided not to put on a normal club race this month.

MAY 27th HMBA DH BUILD DAY

Thank you for your effort guys & girls that helped at our last build day!

There will be no Club DH round on the above date.
This day will now be a BUILD DAY!

AS Quoted from our President Mark,
“If you're keen to ride or race there, get out with your shovel & get involved. The sooner we get repairs made, the sooner we can re-open the track for riding!”

More info will be posted closer to the date.

This Saturday - 8:30am start - we're having a build day to make the final preparations for the Paterson 24 hour race the following weekend. There'll be some mowing, whippersnipping, benching, and cutting back going on so bring along your favourite power tools & perhaps a set of shears & a mattock (or at least some of these)

Drift Bikes & Complete Fitness Australia Present

The Cycle Fit Package & BG FIT
Information Night

Tuesday May 15th
6.30pm - 8.30pm

Hi ,

DRIFT BIKES has teamed up with Complete Fitness Australia to bring you a cycle fit program ideal for triathletes, road cyclists and mountain bikers who want to perform at their best.

HMBA would like to thank Drift Bikes for their support and financial contribution with the 2012 MTBA Real Insurance National round at Awaba, and are proud to assist Drift Bikes with the promotion of their Anniversary "Carpark EXTRAVAGANZA" Sale coming up on the 12th of May at their Kotara store. See the attached flyer for full details - Robbie tells me it's going to be HUGE!

As on Saturday 21st April there are still drainage line earthworks in progress on Prices Main TSR. The XC mtb track is cut in multiple places and there is earthmoving equipment in the area. I suggest finding somewhere esle to ride until we can resurrect a loop.
Thats the bad news - the good news is that there are some BIG drainage berms being built and the trail fairies will work ther magic once the dozers move on - stay tuned !

Where: Paterson track. Meet at the end of Boulton Rd, Paterson.
When: Sunday 6th of May departing 9am.
Difficulty: Moderate

This would be good one for the people that are not into racing, but still want to have a run on this ultra fun course. As many of you are aware you cannot ride here outside of club run events so this is a good opportunity to do so!

So come check it out. Everyone is welcome, however if you don't have a MTBA license, you can purchase a day ride license from me on the day for 5 Bucks

See you all there.

The 2012 HMBA Club Calendar is now available.

The calendar can be found here.

The calendar may have slight amendments made during the season, so keep checking back for updates.
