RIDE 24 – WELCOME TO NEW ZEALAND

RIDE 24 - WELCOME TO NEW ZEALAND (15.7 KM)

Wombat State Forest


OK to ride  

Some map changes to note.

If riding with non clip-in pedals, then a few ascents require a higher degree of ride fitness and technique.

This remains Ken’s favourite circuit being quiet, verdant, interesting and variety of track.

[1.2] below refers to a white on green labelled km symbol on the map.

[1.3] to [2.5] has a few trees across which are easily bypassed.

In the NE part, between [5.8] and the northernmost Feature 2, there are a number of new well defined tracks to the NE. These were created during extraction of a pine plantation where you can now see open land.

The track junction just N of [9.1] should be cross tracks as a well defined track heads E at that point. Ken’s error <:-[

At [9.1], the 400m of faint track is now clearly defined.

At [11.1] the short section of track becomes faint – continue SA to the main track.

From [11.1] until the road take great care on the short downhills as there are many scoured deep holes which are difficult to see when riding down. These do occur on some other clay track sections.
