Every Saturday afternoon DORC host a social mountain bike ride in different locations around the Darwin area. The aim of these rides is to get all level riders together to enjoy our sport and trails in a friendly supportive environment. These rides can help familiarise you with our local trail networks. They are also a great opportunity to meet other like-minded people.
This Sunday 11th Aug ’19, DORC will host the social ride for Juniors and Beginners at the New Pine Forest, Howards Springs.
We will depart from the Old Shed Carpark which is on the right hand side of Howard Springs Road,almost opposite the the turn off for the Howard Springs nature reserve.
