SportsUNE Trail Head Upgrade The progress with the SportsUNE new trail head is going very well mainly due to the serious volunteer hours of David Brunckhorst, Bill Platts, Paul Whitford, Paul Billings, Zig (Dingo) and Ross Burgess (excavator) from Rossbuild Construction. This week has seen the last of the major berms being formed up by Ross in some very bony ground which would have been very difficult to dig manually. It is getting to the point that material will be brought in to cap the difficult rocky sections and then considerable manual hours with hoes and rakes will be needed to form and compact the track. Following this work the track will need to settle and compact before we can ride on it. The ...

2014 Winter Series Race 4 - Walcha NIXC Round - 20/7/2014 Photo - Jack Feltham dominating the field.What a great turnout to Walcha’s MTB Track inaugural race. 9 Dirt Masters and 65 full track competitors mopped up the 8.6km track that had been sculpted through the eucalyptus woodland. The weather was kind with none of the recent snow, only light wind and a temperature of around 10C – perfect racing weather. There were a lot of very positive comments about the new track and Chris Feltham and Speedy (the main track builders) can be very proud of their efforts. In addition to the track, the BBQ egg and bacon rolls and steak sandwiches were hitting the spot on race completion. To top of that, Armidale’s very own Bicycle Central ...
