It’s on again this Sunday 21st Oct 18, the DORC junior social ride will be held at Charles Darwin National Park. The meeting point for this ride will be the bottom car park, just inside the front gates at  3:45 for 4:00 pm start.

The plan is to have some fun on the recently rebuilt pump track. If time permits, take a spin along the green trails.

The ride will go for approx 1.5 hours. You will need a MTB in good working order, helmet, gloves, enclosed shoes, plenty of water and if you are 10 years or under bring your parent/careers along for the ride.

Charles Darwin National Park is renowned for it’s biting midge problem. Therefore you will need to cover up or use some form of protection against these insects.
