| Join
us for a challenging mountain bike ride around Manly Dam.
One of Sydney's best rides -from beginner to intermediate
and even advanced, all enjoy this ride. You'll experience
a tight and testy track that winds it's way up and down steep
rocky tracks. This ride has some magnificent views of the
dam and the ocean. You will be transported within minutes
into the wilds of Seaforth, and begin to imagine that Sydney
has left you behind. Then gasp in awe at the beauty of the
coastline. Huff and puff your way up the steep 4WD track
to Allambie. Along the way we'll stop for a BBQ lunch before
enjoying the ride home! A
fun day out and a great way to mix and meet new people. |
