TTFs on TrailBerm, Bridge
The trail is mostly a false-flat at the start. The first major obstacle is a dip leading over a very short bridge. With the current growth, as long as you aim for the clear part of the trail you probably won't even notice it.
A little further along is another dip through a (usually dry) creek. The up-slope is fairly rutted, so you'll want to carry some speed to avoid clipping a pedal. A few tight turns take you past a shelter structure then the gradient starts to become noticeable as you head uphill.
Some larger turns and short straights follow before riders reach the Access Road. Head left up this road toward Cherry Poppins or keep going to Omya Way.

Route of the Central West InterClub Series 3 hour, held in Bathurst on 22 July 2017
Lewis-56
Not worth doing in my opinion. All flat turns. Not much flow etc. seems to just be here as extra mileage for XC.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
