It's dual carriageway here, and there's a right turn across the other lane into Forest Ridge Drive (signposted and a sealed road).

Tuesday 9/3/2010

OK here are the plots of our ride last night.
We got a little lost looking for the first section of Single Trail and had a bit of a bush walk. Glenn has since been banned from leading any ride ever again.... But it's all good and part of the adventure that is MTBing and besides it found us new bits to ride.

The Squiggles (I did a quick lap of this to map it, before we started the main ride)
