Night Rider Episode: Cobaw (Pre-Trip)

25/02/2018

We all gathered at the Lancefield bakery for a 8:30 departure along Burke and wills track. Once we reached Cobaw state forest we aired down and head down Camp Track.

The track was Difficult with many washouts requiring good wheel placement and some guidance which Greg assisted with. Luckily there were some chicken tracks around some of the extreme sections though even these were difficult. In the Dry i would rate this track an overall Black Diamond.

We turned left onto Ridge rd and head down Pole track, this track was lots of fun with some difficult steep downhill sections with some large obstacles and ruts to avoid. I would rate this section Medium to Difficult (harder if heading up)
