Nerang Trails SEQ

By amarkie - Posted on 25 April 2013

I had a great ride out at Nerang today. Heaps of locals on the trail giving me some great tips on where to ride. There are a lot of trails in the State Forest that are technically illegal but I think I managed to stay on track today.

Thanks to the 3 blokes with Specializeds in the car park, the Pomie guy with the Red Reign at the top of 3 hills, The three young blokes (one with a hard tail) at the bottom.

I rode up Three Hills Fire Road (Centre rd) well walked some of it, then descended the The Three Hills track. That was pretty cool. The loose rocky sections on the corners .. that were lined with trees .. were stressing me out !! HA! But there were some great sections to let the bike run for a bit.

Then when I got to the bottom I rode around the Casuarina Grove Circuit and the optional loop. I seemed to back track a bit so i will have to check the GPS to see where I went but those sections were fun. Lots of little technical bits to keep you on your toes when climbing, but nothing to outrageous when descending.

All in all a pretty bloody good Anzac Day morning. I'll hopefully get back up there and do it again tomorrow.
