"A gondola connecting the Wollongong escarpment to the beach is the centrepiece of a grand plan to transform Mount Keira into an adventure playground.
The proposal, put forward by Destination Wollongong, aims to revitalise the under-utilised mountain and encourage people to visit the region by capitalising on growing interest in adventure tourism.

Condition of Mount Annan re Jet Black 24hr
Anyone know what the condition of the Mt Annan tracks are like given the Jet Black race will be held there next weekend. Also a view on how quickly they dry out?
Cheers

Menai / Lucas Heights - Its getting close to opening again!!
Just a note to say that Menai is very close to becoming open again!!! There was a ride day yesterday for the volunteers who have been doing the trail building (upto around 9kms at the moment) of nearly all new trails.
There is more information available on their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Menai-MTB-Park-pr... and for anyone who has ridden there previously, its looking good. It has similar feel to how it was originally but with better trail construction.

RNP condition
Has anyone ridden out of Loftus oval recently?
I'm wanting to do a night ride there Thursday but not sure how the place holds up after the recent weather.

Heathcote MTB
Went to ride one of the many tracks down at Heathcote today. A friend of mine lives near a track just behind Heathcote High School, just off Parklands Ave, and he invited me down for a ride. Although it took an hour to get there, it was a ride full of single tracks, fire trails, steady climbs and a few nice downhills. We did the 12 km circuit twice, but there are lots of additional tracks we will leave till next time. I have not ridden the other more well known tracks down that way, but will hopefully get to ride those soon too.
Harrington Park trail
Anyone know who maintains the trail in the *edit: to remove location details* - I came across it a few weeks ago and really enjoy riding it. It is well maintained and I noticed a lot of work since the heavy rains recently (berms have been reprofiled, creek crossings have been corded). If I can find out who is looking after it I wouldn't mind giving a hand at times. Thanks Andrew.
Bargo Colliery
I went yesterday to spot called Bargo Colliery, which is 20min further south of Mt Annan.
After much research and planning from various logs I could find online, I had finally a course ready and loaded in my Garmin… well unfortunately the first few single trails I went were unused since a while and therefor too much overgrown; so I gave up and went to Mt Annan!
But it looked that someone marked trails there, as per the blue tags attach on the bushes. Unfortunately, they were hard to find and the area is big.
