GNR 90km loop

When: 
Friday, 9 January, 2015 - 08:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Great Northern Road
Meeting Point: 

Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.

-33.38142,150.989066 (Park by the Ferry)

I'm going to do a loop starting and finishing at Wisemans Ferry.

It follows the GNR until Mogo campsite then loops back on unsealed roads. Time permitting, we could call in for a meal and beer at St Albans pub.

Here's the route I'm going to follow:-

Start time is flexible but don't really want to start much later. Earlier would be fine though.

Thanks to Gareth for the strava link. Laughing out loud

Sorry for the late notice, but think I'm going to try my hand at this MTB lark tomorrow morning Eye-wink

Click the "I'm in" link or I won't know you're coming. If there's no interest shown will probably still be there but might not be punctual. Look for the guy in a Silver Jazz with a Yeti 575.

Hope to do something like one of these (30-40km/2-3 hours), but up for debate:

Council will be providing lunch and Adrian from Synergy is bringing the BBQ.

For those interested, we will finish the day with a social lap around Knapsack so bring your bikes.

All are welcome, best tools to bring are Matics and loppers.
