Probably slightly over dressed but comfortable the siren went and off we go, in a nice and orderly manner , after about 800 meters i am in a large group and…

Mangrove Mountain, Dubbo Gully, Wisemans Ferry. at Dharug National Park
May 27, 2012 all day
Dubbo Gully is situated between Mangrove Mountain and Wisemans Ferry in the Dharug National Park This area is pretty hilly with many long climbs, most of the trails in the area are fire trails with a good mixture of technical sections and downhill runs for the thrill seekers.I will post a map and we can decide which way to ride it either starting form the North or the South....The total distance is around 60kms.See More
