Social Ride Saturday 15 Jan 22 Stow Rd

13/01/2022 by Geoff Fox

Stow Rd, Howard Springs

In line with the current COVID-19 situation we ask that riders please produce their vaccine status prior to going on these rides. This will be as simple as showing the green tick when you scan the QR code upon your arrival. Please ensure that you adhere to the social distancing standards throughout the ride. Keep one small saltie between each other at all times.

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 Saturday 15 January 2022 the social ride will be an EASY ride from Stow Rd, Howard Springs. We will ride the Stow Rd trails and travel down to the new pine forest (via the wet season detour) and do some exploring from there.

The meeting point for this ride will be at the Stow Rd entrance, Howard Springs.  Please arrive at 4:45pm for a 5:00pm start.

Post ride rehydration is a byo affair.

Location Stow Rd / New Pine Forest
Start Point Stow Rd
Date Saturday  15 Jan 2022
Time 4:45 pm for a 5:00 pm start

The ride will be at an easy pace and will be approx 1.5 hours in duration.  There will be  plenty of breaks to regroup and catch your breath on the way around.

You will need a mtb in good working order, an Australian Standards helmet, enclosed footwear, gloves and a minimum or 2 litres of water will be required. Riders please be self-sufficient with water, spare tube, pump and tyre levers, etc.

Due to changes with AusCycling policy, DORC is no longer able to offer non members the option of signing an insurance waiver to join our weekly social rides. Therefore, you must be a member of AusCycling to participate. DORC apologises for any inconvience this may cause.  You may like to try the four week free trial membership. click here.

Please see the ride leader before the start of the ride.

Feel free to message us for more info.
Enjoy the Ride!
