    Hi Guys
    Just got directed to your site, not sure if its cause Im old or they think you guys maybe able to help me.

    A mate and I are looking to come down from QLD and check out the riding around Coffs as weve heard that its shit hot. Ideally we’re looking for gr. 5 or 6 single track, hills, creeks and good flowing riding.
    Has anybody got any advice on were we should head.
    Does anyone have GPS tracks plotted that we could use.
    We’re not against using a trail tour company but usually you get more riding in with just a couple of riders who know where to go.
    If someone wanted to be our guide we could return the favour as we hang out at Kennilworth QLD a bit. We think Kennilworth is dirt bike heaven however Ive heard Coffs can give it a run for its money. It doesnt have to be Coffs if there are better places between there and the border.
    We have a week spare 22-26 Feb
    We use KTM 300s

    Cheers hope you can help

    Im guessin ollies not coming, rubbish tracks and all!

    How much rain have you guys had?

    #170299

    The rain has been perfect and it is sweet,sweet loam with a bit a slippery stuff to keep you on your toes. Perfect!

    I am away in Nth Qld the days you are around so if you can make it for a ride Sunday afternoon I can show you in the right direction and then leave you with my map so that you can explore more. The Bello boys or Corey may be able to take you for a blast as well.

    There are lots of accomadation options and as I am on the Nth side of Coffs google accom in Woolgoolga or Darlington Park for rates. Darlington park has good cabins, pools and facilites with safe place to lock your bikes and 200 metres from the beach on one side on less than that to the forest on the other. It is aslo only 1km from a great pub.

    Cheers

    We’ll make sure we are there before lunch Sun and hopefully you can take us for a couple of hours and give us the low down on where to go for the rest of the week. Any sort of luck one of the other boys may be able to take us for a lap also.

    Thanks

    No drama 99.

    I will take you out sunday arvo and give you an overview of the forest and leave you my map and you and your crew can take it from there.

    I will do my best to get some time off Monday morning as well so it should work out good for you guys.

    Book some accom and I will look after you the best I can with the time I have.

    That sounds fantastic STM

    At the moment theres only 2 of us so we should be able to cover a bit of ground.

    Darlington sounds good but havnt checked with them yet. Is that close to your place?

    What do you ride?

    Cheers 99

    Darlington is only 2 k’s from me and it is absolute beach front. This time of year cabins are cheap and the facilities are 1st class.

    I ride a WR250F as I mostly ride tight singletrack but I have terrain here that would challenge anyone and any bike keen to have a crack!

    yer we’re single trackers as well. We like a good hill climb and a fast flowing tight ST.
    My mate is better at the hills than me, hes still got a bit of youth on his side.

    I run a rekluse as I race local enduros however the rekluse is not really the go on some steep hills as you dont have the clutch to take a bit of power out of it when needed

    Sunday is funday for the Bello boys. Not really much help to you on the work days.

    You could brush the expo and be in Bello for a 7:30 start. :woohoo:

    Yer STM we are on track I think.
    Just went for a 2 day warm up ride and the bikes and gear got trashed in the mud so didnt count on such a big job to get ready. Cant get anything dry.
    Im leaving Rocky in the morn and will pick up my mate at Maryborough and we will be on our way.
    Will PM you my mobile number

    Cheers 99
