The idea is to do duckholes and centre at a social pace as they will be the driest and if everything goes according to plan we will finish at the tavern for dinner and a beer after the ride

Its raining in terrey hills and looks like its only going to get worse, so Im calling the ride off

I will be trying to revisit the Mont course , if i dont get lost .....18 k'S of sweet single track if not just ride / explore the best trails around for an hour or two or three.... after this i will need to feed ...Gluten free red rooster fills the belly here
And all going well scoot off to Stromlo for a hot lap of the Std XC Course ( well not that hot at 45-47 min night laps for me ) If there is anyone here to keep me company i could be convinced to explore some more but as the place feels to me like Wolf Creek at night, on my own i only have the courage to bolt around one time

As Tien deemed Cascades too wet for this Saturday, I have decided to repeat last weeks ride.

Centre (backwards), Waratah, Salvation, Towlers, Elvina, Duck Hole (backwards), then Perimeter/Long tract to complete. Pending how I feel after all that I might go do duckholes/centre one more time as well.

This is a cross-country training ride with moderate speed, with a bit of the black stuff.

Bring plenty of water/food.

EEEK DATE CHANGE!!!!

The trails in this area have a bit of everything and impress all that ride them, there's plenty of fast downhills and wonderful single track with techy bits to keep you on your toes. It's not considered hard but you will need good braking control, I wouldn't recommend this for beginners.
