We will be starting from the Glennfield entrance
large parking lot.
Heading west on the paved trails, under McCloud Trail we’ll continue on single track but on the left side of the creek, difficult section for about 2km's, we'll say away from the low muddy areas. The remainder of this ride has technical sections, lots of roots, several 5 to 10 minutes climbs but nothing too extreme. We'll be making the odd stop after climbs and a snack break about the half way point at Bridge #1. Please be advised that you must stay with the group. http://www.friendsoffishcreek.org/images/map.pdf This will be a relatively difficult fast pace ride with drops and off camber sections, riders are expected to have some Mountain Bike experience and a good fitness level. The elevation gain for this ride is around 1200 to 1400 ft over approximately 2.5 hours, 16km to 18km range overall. Please text me if you're going to be late, you can meet up with us on the trail. This is one of my favorite routes in Fish Creek, come have some FUN! If you like a challenge you'll enjoy this ride. | |||||||
