30 July 2014 - UP-Date of Events - 17TH AUGUST 2014 MTB FUN RIDE
Hi Everyone, excitement is buzzing with 16 days to go before the fun starts. Thank you Craig Rhodes for sending us an update on the MTB Track fun ride 17th August 2014.
The track is roughly 20long(2 laps for the fitness fanatics)running through farmlands which are predominantly sugar cane and two sections of macadamia orchards. We utilise the contours of the lands and their road network along bush lines and riverine. For the not so fit there will be pushing up some hills(maybe 3) and then refreshing air on the other side!! A medium fitness is required and many a bead of sweat will drip from you.The ground is gravel, loose stones and grass. You might even encounter bush pigs, bush buck and dyker with many birds too.
The track will be marked with single green tape and double tape on the left or the right for direction(explanation at briefing)
The kiddies track is roughly 3 km which will go below the main start and head along a nice even road and around our dam where there will be a water station with some chockies to keep them going back to the Finish. Mommies welcome to join their kiddies. Please remember NO HELMET, NO RIDE!!!!!
This is a fun ride so enjoy and see you there!
All the best
Craig
