Glory run down McPhails this morning

Just reporting in on a great ride we had today. Took a day off work and headed down to Kangaroo Valley with a couple of mates.

We had an absolutely glorious run down McPhails - it was a perfect day for it. Track was dry and fast, the waterbars were in a "launching" mood, and there wasn't another soul on it, so we had a bit of extra fun in the switchback section by redoing some of the nicer berms a few times.

The climb back up Meryla pass was hard work, but the views, and "Avatar" like landscape helps to compensate.

Some pics to follow.

Around 1hr 45 min Sydney to Fitzroy Falls. Unless you hit the M5 at peak hour, then it's anyones guess!
