A short lived but full on paced run through Bruce
and Oconnor Ridge produced some awesome runs for
Chris Neil and myself.
Unlike Isaacs, the runs
here are only slightly downhill, but with constant
peddaling, Neil and I where reaching speeds of 33km/h
through some of them. The advantage is little or no
climbing back to the top of the Ridge and they still offer
most of the challenge of the Isaacs style runs (just
without the big jumps and obstacles).
There are
too many tracks to try and mention here, we just
headed into the Ridge and took whatever little walking
trail we could find...at speed. They were all pretty
awesome with kewl erosion dugouts and jumps to take (and
plenty of trees to dodge around). Unfortunateley we had
to end the night early, but we will be back here
soon to enjoy this truly awesome place!
