A special end of month ride this month, on Thursday 28th August is from Pyalong to High Camp and return.
We have a delightful loop out of Pyalong. We leave Pyalong and climb into the picturesque granite country to the south-east of town. After admiring the view, we will ride to the High Camp Flora Reserve where Lindsay will provide us with an overview of the plans by the FBKRT to develop the area to highlight the indigenous, rail-related and settler heritage of High Camp – home for the Taungurung People and once a thriving railway town. After High Camp we cross over the Northern Highway and ride the 10km gradual downhill to Mollison Creek where we will stop to admire the largely intact timber trestle railway bridge. We then ride through Pyalong, using the Northern Highway underpass to arrive at the finish near the Pyalong General Store.
After the ride, join us for lunch at the Pyalong Pub.
The ride is 34kms long with approx 515 metres of climbing and descent. Most of the climbing occurs between Pyalong and High Camp.
The ride is predominantly on sealed roads with low levels of traffic and with approx 3kms on unsealed roads.
