Super Sunday mtb 30th January

Post by DavidF »

Time to make the most of the good weather:

Departing lower car park @ 9.15am sharp.

Route as follows:
Kelly Quarter
9 Stones
Best Descent
Corrabut
Up Selection Box
Over fire road to junction
Down unnamed singletrack (names please)
Windmills
Black Dog
RnR
Paradise Extended
Critical Mass bawk bawk
Dabbage
End

Now I have put the times we expect to be at the 9 stones and Corrabut on the map below so that people can join in as they wish. I have done this because the section of this spin to the Black Banks is not for the faint hearted as it has some tough technical climbing

Hope to see you all there
