Are you keen to see what all the excitement of mountain biking is about?
Well we are running our 1st SPR club ‘come and try’ day out on the dirt onSunday the 28th of October. We will be meeting at the Kalamunda Camel Farm at 0730 ready for 0800 ride and heading out on a loop of the ~22km trail.
The Camel Farm is a tourist attraction (you could hit the trails on a camel instead of your regular steed if you want). There is parking and a cafe there – and mountain bikers are openly welcome to use their facilities. The Kalamunda Circuit basically runs through the place!
You get there by heading down Paulls Valley Rd, which comes off of Mundaring Weir Rd on the left not too far out of Kalumunda.
Google maps: Meeting point.
Depending on numbers as to how many groups we have, but the aim is to have a fast and slow group. This means you can attempt to hold the fast if you want and know you will get picked up by the next group if you drop off. We will aim to cater to all skill levels and provide tips along the way for the less experienced.
If you’re keen you can ride it on a CX bike but we recommend MTB bikes in good working condition be used. Also remember to bring spares and water for out on the trail.
I believe that the date for this ride is Sunday 28th October. If so – I’m in !!!
I really want to come! I can get a bike.. but I have never done any mountain biking.. so how slow a slow group are we we talking? Nanna pace is what I am thinking.. also what do wear?
depending on the numbers our slow group will be at the pace of the slowest rider.
How fitting that ‘Dirty Sunday’ should fall on my birthday. I’m up for some excitement 🙂
Yes but are you up for some mountain biking as well….:P
I am in! Just got a new BMC dual suspension and need to give the beast a try!
Cool see you all there !
I am in for the MTB tomorrow
