LEG INFORMATION
-
LEG 1 - consists of
a wide white gravel road leading to Deep Creek Road (about 3km)
and then travelling south along Tram Road for 11km. This wide
road will make visibility easy for riders. The ride will then
follow undulating forestry fire breaks on Cleveland and Locketts
Road, returning back down Reservoir Drive to ride base. There
are creek crossings and water available on this leg. This leg
will be marked with reflective tape and with YELLOW arrows.
-
LEG 2 - starts on
the same section as Leg 1, but follows Deep Creek Road for
longer. We then head into forestry and eventually end up
crossing into Oldina Forest Reserve. This loop is on gravel
roads, clay surfaces and about half way through has a fun blast
through a blue gum plantation with red dirt underfoot, and we
then return back toward the Oldina reserve. After leaving the
reserve, we follow Blackfish Creek road up along the fenceline
with views of Table Cape and Wynyard. There are three creek
crossings on this leg. Take particular care at the first creek
crossing. This leg will be marked with RED
arrows.
-
The 20km loop is fairly easy! Riders will head
out onto Deep Creek Road, cross over and down onto Tram Road,
follow that all the way to the end, cross back over Deep Creek
Road, and return along Reservoir Drive.
