HELP US FINISH THE YEAR STRONG!

Our trails don't maintain themselves. Every berm, jump, drainage line, bridge, and feature across our network is built and maintained by volunteers who donate their time to keep our trails safe, sustainable, and fun for everyone.

As we approach the end of the financial year, we're calling on our riding community to help us continue to maintain and grow the trail network we all love.

✅ Maintain existing trails
✅ Build new features and trail improvements
✅ Support volunteer trail crews
✅ Invest in the future of mountain biking on the Northern Beaches

All donations are tax-deductible, making EOFY the perfect time to give back to the trails that give us so much.

Whether it's $20, $50, or $500, every dollar makes a real difference and goes directly towards supporting our trail network.

💚 Ride it. Love it. Help keep it alive.

Thank you to everyone who has already supported our trails and our club. Together we can keep building something special. 🦍

GARIGAL CUP RND 2 – RESULTS WRAP-UP

What. A. Day.

Huge props to Dan Adams, Hugo Bell, and David Maggs for laying down some serious heat and taking the fastest times of the day in the Elite Men’s category.

Big congratulations as well to Brigetta Stoppel for taking the win in the Women’s category, with Allie Blackwell backing it up in 2nd place. Great racing all around!

Very impressive turnout, especially seeing the younger generation stepping up and taking over from the old crowd 😅 The future is looking fast.

The next round is looking to be a proper battle.

Massive thanks to all the volunteers who helped out. None of this happens without you legends. If you’d like to help out at future rounds and keep improving the race series, get in touch
we’d love to have you involved.

See you at the next one!

Council call for feedback and comments: seaforth bike park

A new bike park is coming to Seaforth - tell us your thoughts - comments close 11 June.

We’re creating a new bike park to fill a real gap for outdoor riding facilities on the Northern Beaches. It will give intermediate to advanced local riders in the south a place to progress their skills and connect with others. Over the past few months, we’ve worked closely with a dedicated design group to shape the vision.

Now it’s your turn to explore the draft plan, jump in and share your feedback with us before we progress to detailed design and construction.

Have your say

We invite you to view the draft Concept Plan, check out the FAQs and share your feedback by completing the online comment form below.
