1000 Steps Junkies

[CrispyFries]

Bit cold n wet on the steps today, and really busy. Two guys doing 50 laps over two days for charity.

I hope the section of lyre bird at the top that they've done isn't the finished product, the steps are only wide enough for one person.

Bikelines Australia rode past there today

50 laps, f**k that for a joke.

Lyrebird is open again? Wouldn't mind checking out how badly done the new steps are haha

Anybody keen for a run up there soon? Sunday's my only free day

[CrispyFries]

Not yet, but you can see a section of it when you reach the top of the steps. The main track to the base of the steps is closed and you have to take rambler's which is nice and muddy.

I havent been there lately as the weather on the weekends has been shit. And ive been sick the past week while its been nice so that sucks but ill probably be there on sunday arvo if the weather holds out. I took some time off them and my other training so now every time i run up i nearly vomit lol

Does anyone know when the Lyrebird track steps are due to be finished?

[CrispyFries]

It was meant to be last month :-/ Now looking late november

[Longinus]

Yeah, been wondering about that, last time I went it was all still fenced off. But the new steps did look fun, can't wait to hit that track again

[llama_au]

There was some people sneaking down it, but it's still fenced off. Hopefully makes the steps a bit less busy!

[Longinus]

The steps are only good when it's wet, nobody else is up there, then the fun goes away when you slip and fall on your ass

I nearly did that the second last time I was this, hooked my elbow in the guard rail. Left a nice bruise.

or at night with torches.....f all people up there then too...however once I did see a guy fully suited up with a laptop doing them.....kinda freaked me out a little....he had no torch either....weird...

Did 1000 steps yesterday. It's a lot better during the week days. Can actually get a car park!!! Also not many people

The works are still going on, the notice says it'll be ready by early 2013. Can't wait for them to finish up the Lyrebird Track with the new steps. The new memorial thing looks pretty cool, I can see them holding events there a lot easier with a podium

Weather is great again, who's up for 1000 steps soon?

[llama_au]

Doing it every weekend

[Birds]

Perhaps we should organise a day to go?

[llama_au]

I wouldn't keep up with you guys.

[CrispyFries]

I haven't been in ages - would be slow

[Dylaan]

Perhaps we should organise a day to go?

down

+1 for being slow

[Birds]

Am I the only one who doesn't think he'd be slow?! Might have to do a lap before meeting up with you lot for a slow and steady
