opportunity in adversity
It's my new motto so when the dust settled after fires devastated my neck of the woods I took the opportunity to clean up an old, old trail that the fires had cleared out and in doing so found this unique trail feature
Baltzer Lookout
Baltzer lookout offers an amazing view of the Grose Valley, and looking down and left you can see hanging rock.

Bathurst pump track
As of November 2013 this looks to be a work in progress and a little over grown.
TBH I could barely get it with out a pedal stroke or two but then I'm not the best at pump track either.
A fun little loop that will get better with some wheels over it and further work to extend it.
Bathurst XC stage 1
Stage 1 of the XC loop.
There is not much in the way of trees so it's a bit exposed to the weather and any excursion off track is flirting with flats from a tire full of catheads but it is heaps of fun.
Starts up a little hill on wide track then take the second left (arrowed) into the single track. Over the rock roll over and some other artificial obstacles and it's like a mini flow track across the back and down to the bottom.
Back onto wide track and up the the center climb. It's such a deceptive little climb, almost flat but it hurts so much at race pace.

Head out towards braceys Lookout but take the right fire rd just before the main road returns to tar.
A lovely fast, rough, baby head strewn fire road takes you to the the end of the ridge to meet up with the downhill section.
