Bathurst XC stage 1

Stage 1 of the XC loop.
There is not much in the way of trees so it's a bit exposed to the weather and any excursion off track is flirting with flats from a tire full of catheads but it is heaps of fun.

Starts up a little hill on wide track then take the second left (arrowed) into the single track. Over the rock roll over and some other artificial obstacles and it's like a mini flow track across the back and down to the bottom.

Back onto wide track and up the the center climb. It's such a deceptive little climb, almost flat but it hurts so much at race pace.

But worth every pedal stroke as when you get to the top you take a hard right and you're into a bob sled like series of berms expertly dug into the hill. Big and solid, rail those babies brakeless if you are game. a bit more twisty turny stuff, some interesting log roll overs and then you turn for home.

All in all a fun little track. While you may not find the length enough to entice you to travel if you are in the area it is definitely worth checking out and as the project develops more track will be added
