Any advice on a good ride to sample as much of the route before hand would be appreciated, especially now the event is in reverse.
Cheers

Fling training ride at Wisemans Ferry
Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.
A long ride in preparation for the Southern Highland Fling leaving 2 weeks to recover before the Scott 24 hour. I had in mind a 70 to 80k ride starting at wisemans ferry then up the sandy hill and continuing 35k along Gt Northern Road. Then turn back and go down Shepherds Gully and finish ourselves of on the 8k road back to the ferry.
This is a training ride so minimal stops but the pace will not be race pace. A moderate pace to average about 15kms / hour is ideal.
Bring heaps of food and water and a spare tube and everything else required for big a day out.
