Going to canberra perhaps next week, for work......thought id throw my bike in and do a lap at Majura in the arvo. Does anyone know if it is still open ?. I heard it was closing for logging.? Would love to sneak in a lap after work that day.........

Do a lap at the new Kowen or Sparrow hill ! So so much better than Majura anyway !

Gap jumps, gullies, north shore, balance beams, see-saws and skills area. I thought it was awesome just too far away for a regular visit - I'm gutted it's gone Sad

Never rode Majura so can't comment there.

Kowen is just across the highway from Sparrow, really nice flowy singletracks there, no real hard technical hard bits, going through the corners as fast as possible will be the challenge. The trails are well signed with options for shorter and longer loops

Stromlo have more variety, loop 2 downhill section is really awesome, always leaves me with a smile after finishing it.

last but not least, Bruce ridge, closest to city centre, no signs so quite easy to get lost in there with a web of singletracks all over the place. It's a good place to ride after a rain but when really dry the tracks are really loose.

Pretty sure it's only the tracks at the bottom that have gone due to the road, all the stuff up high is still there.

Do a search on Rotorburn...
