Coach rd again
Coach rd was spectacular today
http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/6108190
We made good time with a group of 7.
two mechanicals as Phil's shock sprung a leak before we even started. A quick pit stop at insane to swap it for a shock I had spare... 5 km he managed to kill that on too. So he went home swapped bikes and caught back up to us at the second wash out.
The State MX titles were on at Clarence so a few more Motos up on top than usual but once past the Bungleborrie we had left them behind.
The road was once again firm and somewhat smooth so we made good time along the top with a few stops.
The Coach road was a blast as always. I still miss the rock steps but the water bars make up for their lack. The Lock gate is still in a stupid place, belt down past the pagodas and turn a bind corner to find a locked gate 10m in front of you with no warning it's going to be there.
The next bit was oh so good.
Loose leaf litter... flowing corners... dips and jumps... more corners.
Families met us at the bottom for a picnic and then we took the kids for a ride down to the retort ruins.
The road out was even smooth
Most enjoyable.

Not this time around but from about a year ago when we did the round trip (taking in a slightly different route in, for a look at the tunnels and Pagoda trail, and the main road out)
and more
