Social Rides This Weekend

12/02/2019 by Geoff Fox

Every Saturday afternoon DORC host a social mountain bike ride in different locations around the Darwin area. The aim of these rides is to get all level riders together to enjoy our sport and trails in a friendly supportive environment. These rides can help familiarise you with our local trail networks and to help you meet other like-minded people.

This Saturday 16th Feb 19, the ride will be hosted at Charles Darwin National Park. We will gather at the carpark, just inside the front gate, at 4:45 for a 5:00 pm start.

The ride will go for approx 1.5 hrs with breaks along the way.

You will need a mtb in good working order, a helmet, enclosed footwear, gloves and plenty of water. Also bring along things you may need to keep you going. For example spare tube, tools, pump.

On completion of the ride we will head to the One Mile Brewery for a post ride beer. All welcome.

For insurance purposes, you will need proof of membership with DORC/MTBA or be prepared to sign a waiver.
