One Day in the Hunter

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Hi,
I'll have one day in the Hunter, this coming Sunday.

Any recommendations for a trail to ride? Something XC, don't mind a few hills, looking for somewhere I can work up a sweat, maybe about 30-45kms, (laps are OK if necessary).

I'll be riding in the MTBGP @ Singleton on Saturday, so just want to sample something else while I'm around.

I was sort of interested in the James Estate trail, just because I have heard of it, I'll be staying close to Singletone, but don't mind driving.

Thanks,
G.

Rode on Saturday AM early. Bone dry (except the cow pats). Some thoughtful soul had mowed either side of the track. Nice one!

Rode trails yesterday, very dry and generally in good condition.

Note some new tracks have been put in to replace parts of the top of Huntington Downhill - not sure how they will hold up over time without appropriate drainage. Could be an issue with Council when they spot/hear about them.

After Friday night's showers, the track is now rendered a clay fest. Be prepared for your bike to develop wheels Barny Rubble would be proud of! Took me an hour to clean the bike and shoes. Never again!
