The ever popular NEMTB Summer Series returns, this time with a twist in the tail. Following on from the fun of the mini-gravity events held last year, each time the the Summer Series is held at Kookaburra Crest riders will have the option of either the standard lap based XC race OR to do timed gravity descents, aiming for their fastest descent.

2025 Update - The Piney Rehabilitation Project 

Forest Corp NSW have advised NEMTB that they will be commencing removal of pine trees and weeds within the closed section  of the Armidale State Forest within the next two weeks. This work is expected to take at least six weeks, with clean up of the site and rehabilitation to follow. 


Club members and riders are strongly encouraged stay out of the closed section of The Piney, bounded by Rockvale Road, Donald Creek and Tilbuster Ponds. 


The closure is due to a high safety risk from falling trees and branches and applies to all users. 


The trails on the eastern side Donald Creek, accessible from the Pine Forest Road carpark, are open for riding. Alternatively, please use the SportUNE, Fat Tyre Farm, and Robbers Run trail networks for your mountain biking fix.


For updated information on the rehabilitation project and current status, please refer to https://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/operations/about-our-harvesting-operations/armidale-state-forest-rehabilitation-project.
