Thanks Ivan, I'll check it out when I'm down there next week.It is fairly overgrown but rideable Wear a long sleeve jersey to avoid a few cuts.
I ride there on Tuesday.
Hey Ivan,
Have you been to Blackbutt lately? How are the trails looking after all the rain? I imagine the Lantana would be going nuts? Going t o my parents place over Easter and wondering whether to bother taking the bikes.
Cheers

Hey Ivan,I haven't been on the bike for a while due to a neck injury, but I imagine there will be plenty of lantana, its going nuts everywhere.
The peeps on this facebook group may have better info. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1377799315878068/
It's been nearly 6 months due to some muscle problems. I'm hopeful that it's getting better now.Hey Ivan,
Thanks for that.
Hopefully you're healing well. How long are you out for?
Welcome to the area LPG . Trails are running nicely . Some are overgrown but I reckon this just gives it a more natural feel rather than groomed . Just note that while these trails have been there for over 20 years they are not MTB specific . Depending on the time of day you will come across walkers and we always give them right of way here . The council does not mind us riding here just as long as new trails are not built .I'll be moving and will be living within a minute or 2 from Blackbutt reserve. Would be happy to get involved in a bit of the maintenance of the track and of course a ride. I'll only be there in September (I'll be riding the Colorado trail amongst other things in the meantime) but I'm excited to be living a quick pedal from a fun track.
Would be nice to meet up with some local riders/trail fairies if anyone wants to send me a PM.
Thanks Mario, I'll have to get along to the Tuesday night ride once I'm actually there.Welcome to the area LPG. Trails are running nicely.

There are regular Tuesday night rides too that get anywhere between 5 and 20 riders - all are welcome. For me the beauty of this place is that you can ride and not see anyone for your entire ride .
Likewise . If you haven`t already you`ll get to ride some Wollongong trails also . I also ride some Sydney trails on a Wednesday night .Look forward to meeting you there sometime.
