I was out for an early morning spin this morning. Came down to the end of Black Dog and didn't really fancy a slip n slide down the mess that would inevitably greet me on RocknRoll
So I decided to try an alternative that we used to ride a few yrs ago before black dog and rocknroll existed (yes there was such a time)
So - go left at the end of black dog, out into the clearing - go straight ahead - as opposed to up the fireroad - go down about 100m and you will see an old scrambler track going off to the right. We call this Not the Bevy.
Now not the bevy used to be unrideable due to scramblers using it. But I was pleasantly surprised this morning - managed to get down it ok - it aint easy and careful choice of line is needed. It is however, a much better alternative at the moment than RocknRoll. It brings you out on the main fireroad a few hundred metres above the exit from RocknRoll.
We are only making RocknRoll worse by riding it at the moment - so I would encourage everyone to use Not the Bevy for a while.
RocknRoll Alternative
Re: RocknRoll Alternative
Might be an idea to put a stick across the track at where the turnoff to Not the bevy is?
Can't think of a definite end to Black Dog/start of Rock n'Roll..
