2Dams-20120722-4a

Kevin is leading the 2 Dams ride starting at 730am from Litchfield Pub (175 Darwin River road) on Sunday 25th of May


View Two Dams Ride in a larger map

Ride up to darwin river dam then ride along the catchment fenceline to Manton dam wall for a smoko break and return the same way.

Total ride of about 60-65km approximately 3 hours ride time, with some decent hill climbs along the way.

Riders would need food and camelback preferably, there are taps to refill at the dam wall.

The ride is mainly 4wd access road but can be quite steep and rocky in some sections, riders must have at least a medium skill level.

Finishing up at the Litchfield Pub for lunch and refreshments

    I would like to do this Kevin 3 hours seems a bit quicker than I would normally do. Distance is OK just dont want to hold everyone up.

    Sorry Simon three hours is the moving time. I think the elapsed time was near 5 hours. So there are lots of stops for regrouping and smoko ๐Ÿ™‚

    We do invite people to come along on these rides and encourage them to become members. Have you ridden this kind of distances before?

    Not on the MTB Kevin, that’s my only hesitation. Can do 60km in a day commuting from the rural area in to the city and back but I know that’s a lot different. If you think it might be a bit much I’ll sit this one out and continue practising in the pine forest ๐Ÿ™‚
