Fantastic ride, thanks guys.

Dude, glad to see you had time to get the camera out while I was making a meal of that hill!

A few photos..

Just out of interest, how would you guys rate (3/4/5(?)) the hills we did?

Without knowing the names:

The one after the basin campsite with the concrete slab.

The rocky step ups where holeshot left us.

The first section of bar(?) hill before the left turn.

The last section of bar hill where I got caught on the step.

Fantastic day with a great bunch of guys.

Thanks to Murph, Tim and CJ for leading, Dude for sweeping and those that gave me the odd push / pull.

That was an epic amount of single track combined with some pretty gnarly hills, like Holeshot, more than I’ve done in one ride. I’d managed to get through all 3 litres of water by the time we got to lunch and that last hill (bar?) pretty much finished me off.

After chuckling at CJ in the rut after lunch it took me six attempts to get up that miserable slab of rock. Karma hurts…

Cramping up all the way home to Newcastle but can’t wait to do it again.

Cheers. Hesso.

Hey Murph, what do you drive / ride so I know I’m in the right place. Cheers.

[Chris van HessingMember]

I’m keen to come along if that’s alright. Might have an extra one with me.

Do you leave from the campsite or the picnic area? Cheers.

Chris.
