Jump of Doom to Upsee daisy
Now days the Jump of Doom is more of a simple float over step down rather than the intimidating double it use to be.
Float the jump or take the B line then it's a nice roughish run down a fast section of trail. Hit the big sandy right hander and it's across the road and into the switchbacks.
a bit of flat trail gives you room for a breather before heading up the other side
Gazza's Gully to Jump of Doom
Either cut across from the end "Egos not a dirty Word" or from the top of the "Clover Leaf"
Gazza's gully is a fun little run with swooping berms which dump you in the gully then throws you at the brutal little climb up to the Jump of Doom
South side DH 1
Ok we need a better name for this one so best suggestions at race 1 wins
Short little DH, similar to those at the northern end of the XC area but with a bit of Steepness.
Fun little trail
Flynny's frequent Flyers
One of the first bits of trail i designed and constructed from scratch and still one of my favorite sections at Lidsdale.
More twisty than it looks on the map it just has a nice flow. 3 little jumps add to it's appeal.
The first is a small double, though it's now rollable due to the landed being pounded down by repeated casings. The Seconds a single hump that i like to prejump to pump out of the back end and the Third is a bigger double off to the left that sets you up for the sharp right/left into the Dungeon.
The Wang Kings Dungeon
The bottom part of the Dungeon was first constructed by some of the Wang locals as a little DH trail. We liked it so incorporated it into the trail with an little climb back out to the fire rd.
Following on from the Flyers it's a damn nice run even if I do say so myself
Brams Bendy bits
Brams Bendy bits is a relatively easy climb out from the Dungeon. Some tight tiwsts snake it's way up beside the fire road.
Can be hooked up with the Frequent Flyiers and Dungeon for another nice mirco loop
The Squiggles
The squiggles is an integral part of any loop at the XC compound of Lidsdale.
A nice little loop on it's own it is the first ST section of our usual Twilight series loop (The othe rtwo being "Meggsies Maze of Madness" and "Acid Bomb/3 men and a chainsaw"
Fun in either direction, with the Squiggles we have the several options in how to include it into the bigger loop, including off shoots that will link up either side of the loop with "The dam climb" and "Flynny's frequent Fliers"
Ego's not a dirty Word
This is a reverse of the normal start for the XC at Lidsdale State forest.
A fun blast down the fire rd before hitting the fast and twisty first section of single trail. You get a good down hill flow before the "Grant Medlock Memorial Pinch" makes you legs scream and lungs want to burst....
Finshes at the fire rd crossing before continuing into the "Clover Leaf"
Town Houses
The Town Houses.
A couple of very steep descents offer a nice challenge and in between there some very fast, all be it narrow, sections of single trail.
Hip And Miss
Hip and Miss is one of the little DH runs CTMBC uses for smaller club races, especially Twilight races.
A fast, twisty start. Nothing out of the ordinary. then you cross the road...
The long bermed Daytona corner points you straight at Super Dry. A largish double with a five meter gap. Some nice flowing and a small drop before the bottom is grin inducing.
