I am heading down to Canberra for work at the end of the week and decided to stay for a ride Saturday morning.

Planning a medium paced XC ride. Going up the switch backs and have a look at the course from the worlds, hamerhead etc. Then up the fire trail and to the observatory and back down skyline and the luge. Probably some of the blue trails from the map after that and whatever there is time for.

I am happy to go exploring if there a people with some more local knowledge.
