Hard and hilly Noosa

Riding the Noosa Enduro course has its challenges but is one of the most rewarding mountain bike rides you are likely to find anywhere.

The recent heavy rains have gouged out large erosion ruts in the fire trails that used to provide for fast riding but now its a lot slower going.

Neil felt that a smaller diameter wheel was the way to go .... in some situations an eight inch wheel has its advantages .... maybe?

It looks idyllic here but the lush, green grass is lush for a reason .... lots of water, mud and a whole lot of cow dung.


After 40 odd kilometres through the bush, the rain had us thinking that maybe a fast bitumen ride could be a good idea. We by-passed the dairy and headed back to Pomona.

A great day out !!

Hey Gaz, where can I find details of the Noosa enduro course? I'm up that way a fair bit and might have to give it a whirl.

Looks like a fun day out ... sorry I missed it.

OCG: Its basically trails 2 & 3 on the Noosa Trail Network. Google is your friend.
