Big thanks to Terry for not only organising this ride, but going out the day before and mapping it out. This ride had a few tasty climbs, some great flowing single track (with vicious log jumps - eh Al) . Terry also found a great stretch of jungle single track that felt like it was air conditioned. Plenty of scenery to be had and not another soul encountered. For those of you who couldn't get out of bed, make sure you come along next time. If anyone reading this is not a member but would like to come on great rides like this, simply follow the link below.
Sunshine Coast Regional Council have invited us (Bushrangers) to the opening of a new section of the Noosa Trail Network - Trail 7 & 8 the opening is on the Sunday 29th November. Ride staring at 7.30am from Pomona show grounds (see more details below). I have been asked to lead the ride but as last time the trail is well sign posted so you can make your own way around it.
All start and finish at Noosa Showgrounds - Pomona
22km Experienced Mountain Bike Ride incorporating both trail 7 & 8 and some road riding starting at 7.30am
7km Easy Mountain Bike Ride on parts of trail 8 starting at 8am
5km Bush Walk on trail 7 with a return to Pomona Showgrounds by bus starting at 8am
15km Horse Ride on trail 7 and through Yurol Forest starting at 8am
A good ole country style Morning Tea will be provided at the Noosa Showgrounds to enjoy after your ride/walk - FREE
The walk/rides will start from the Noosa Showgrounds in Pomona Trail 7 and will then pass through Cooroora Creek Park, under the railway line for mountain bikers and walkers and over the rail way line for horse riders, past Pomona State School into Yurol State Forest. There are many tracks in the forest with trails 7 & 8 clearly marked. The walk/ride will be led by volunteers
