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 Sat 26th Sep ’20 the social ride will be at Lee Point. The meeting point for this ride will be at the Club Tropical Carpark on Lee Point Rd. Please arrive at 4:45pm for a 5:00pm start.
This ride will be in and around the trails in the Casuarina Costal Reserve. We will head back to Club Tropical at the end of the ride for some post ride rehydration and food.
As part of our COVID-19 plan we are required to collect names and phone numbers of everyone participating in our events. These will be used for contact tracing in the unlikely event that an outbreak does occur. We also encourage everyone to download and install the COVID Safe app.
