Places To Ride In The Act

[JD_R33]

Just bought the young fella his first trail bike and keen to take him out to get a face full of dirt and some gravel rash this weekend, but I have no idea where to go.

Anybody know some good spots out of town a bit where no-one cares too much if we putt around on unregistered bikes?

If you don't want the whole world to know about a fav spot, PM me maybe...

Thanks!!

ok Brindabellas, Captainsflat, Cowrin Forrest near QBN. Back of Tharwa is also possiable but shit. YOur best best would be Cowrin but some of the trails there are a bit much for a newbe.

Theres a place out near braidwood thats pretty good too.

Might be a bit far to go though.

Thanks for that. Can you give me a rough idea of how to get to Cowrin Forest, i've never heard of it before?

sure, its just near yass road QBN, near the motocycle training ground on sutton drive I think thats what its called. Just near the turn off to Oaks estate.

If your heading into QBN via the road past the air port, its left just after the oaks turn off, then about 1k up the road is a parking spot.

There are heaps of different areas in there, lots of tight single tracks, or open fire trails. Dont get lost!! and watch out for mountain bikers.

As for the place near braidwood, its Mr Griggs and there is a track there, plus heaps of open spaces just dont go on the areas marked no bikes. That place is pretty good and all for a donation and sign a vayver.

Sorry to dredge up this post again, but can anyone tell me exactly where/what/how to get to the place near Captains Flat?

I think it's on someones private property, like Larbert near Braidwood is. Tried Googling it, but SFA.

Thanks

I cant help you, i was always a passanger never the driver so i have not remembered. All i can remember is driving up the hill out the back of QBN main road to Bungindore. Then turning off somewhere. Its Crown land too not privete.
