25.01.2022 Hi it’s Michelle here. Any MTB riders want to help out for a short filming session this afternoon at 5pm? A camera crew from a tourism body is coming to film the area and asked me to ride for them and if I wanted bring some friends... but I’m struggling to find anyone due to the clash with Brew Crew and the school concert. We will be filming out at Yaugher on a trail close to car access and then back to Forrest Guesthouse for a casual interview about the area (not sure the ...friends get interviews, I think maybe they just want a few people milling around). All up not more than 2 hours. I’ve got a couple of maybes from 2 people but no solid Yes’s so just thought I’d put it out to the public.

20.01.2022 Hi all, Someone keeps blocking off the B line on Marriners at Dave’s drop off. Please stop blocking the B line. Please do not place branches and sticks across the B line (like in this photo) to block it. We’ve had to clear it twice in only a few days. While on the whole, making endless B lines all over the place is unhelpful, this is one that the Club wants in place. We have plenty of kids and beginners and we want to encourage them to learn the skills required to c...omplete obstacles such as this. However the flip side is, this location also sees the highest number of injuries including two people needing a helicopter ride last year, one with a broken neck. A B line here makes sense so people aren’t forced into going over something they are not ready for. Thank you!

16.01.2022 We’re calling for feedback from people who visit and camp at Beauchamp Falls near Beech Forest.

The survey is available until Sunday 15 November here: https://bit.ly/31IwlSz

15.01.2022 Due to the Victorian Mountain Bike Championships race being held here on 5 & 6 Dec, some of our Yaugher trails will be closed to the public 9am -1pm each day. Southern trails all open!

14.01.2022 Whacko, Things are starting to fall into place for the trail works and upgrades we've been working with the Colac Otway Shire, DELWP, Barwon Water, Parks and many other local and government stake holders for near on a decade now. While its not the total amount of money needed for the overall project, we have been through and prioritised works that we can do first providing best bang for buck for both the riding community and just as ( or maybe more ) importantly local community and local businesses. These works will add new trails, modify existing trails, winterproof our system and make them more environmentally sustainable. Giddeup

14.01.2022 The final phase of the Forrest MTB Detailed Design Project will begin this week and will run for a two week period. The Colac Otway Shire Council has engaged a Geotechnical and Biodiversity Consultants to conduct field work on proposed trails. The purpose of this work is to make sure we’re evaluating Forrest natural environment so we can create more sustainable trails and avoid sensitive riparian areas. For the safety of all parties; if you’re out riding on Forrest’s trails, please be aware that consultants are onsite."

14.01.2022 Whooo hooo, suns out, we can ( well some of us can ) go out. Just be mindful we've have some serious winds over the last few weeks and there remains quite a few trees down, like this sneaky critter hiding around a fast corner on Superloop. Stay safe and please do the right thing while you're on the trails and at trailheads with regards to the ol' Covid

12.01.2022 2020 has been a mostly down year, but there is still time to finish it on a high note! We are 9 days away from Forrest. Will you join us? bit.ly/VICMBCS
