I dont mean the whole family haas a parc together but for family business - you know mafia stuff - just in case you were thinking we were weird or something...


Whoa, lucky you cleared that up, 'cos I was all like "Thats a little funky", but now I'm like "yeah, I guess thats okay". Laugh Out Loud

The MTB park in the hills is pretty low key, its all singletrack, not too techy but good enough for a laugh, will keep you occupied for a few hours. Not shuttlable though if you're a DH cat. There are some pretty wicked DH tracks, but they're on private land. If you want access o them, feel free to drop me a PM and I'll track you down some phone numbers.

Wakamarina is a WICKED epic mission about half an hour out of beavertown, awesome beech forest singletrack. Well worth the day, or there's a shorter option for about 2ish hours. Mitch is a madcore wakamarina repeat offender, and I'm sure he'll be keen to show you the way. Smile

I rode Wither for the first time on Saturday. I could only fine 1 semi-technical track that run down the middle of the gully. It was sign posted drop off track or something like that.
