Details:

I'm heading up to visit family this weekend again and am looking to do a couple of laps (at least) on the newly marked XC loop at Kiwarrak.

This is a really fun loop that's almost entirely singletrack or sniggle, and not particularly technical. The elevation change is mild with a few gentle climbs rewarded by flowy downhills. It is well marked with large fluoro painted arrows indicating the circuit at most trail junctions.

For the more adventurous, there are some more technical options off the main XC loop.

Who's in? Smiling

I'll be camping near Seal Rocks so I need time in the morning to pack everything up before leaving to go to the track. I'd understand if 10am is too late, but that's probably the earliest I can make. Will be up there from Sydney for the weekend and heard good things about this track, but don't know much else about it.

Otherwise may run into you on your second lap!

would be better on a chilly autumn mornin.

Could we perhaps split the difference and go 9:30 Kymbo? Would you be able to get up from Seal Rocks by then, or is that squeezing it too much?

Ideally I'd like to get a couple of laps in with some chance of being able get on my way in time to make it home to Sydney by 4:30pm without having to rush.

Let me know if that's doable

Sorry, I won't be able to make it anymore. Thanks for trying to find a time that works for me. Looks like a great track. Hope you have a good ride.

LNever mind, I'll have it all to my self then. Smiling

For any late deciders I'm in a white commodore and on a silver Cannondale.

I'll pick up any latecomers as I pass the car park area.
