One of my favourites - The Oaks plus detour up to Hazelbrook and then back down.

This is a long and steady training ride I am not that fit at the moment so the pace will be easy enough but with no stopping (its training not a social gathering).

A nice early morning ride in the mountains this will be a medium paced training style ride with minimal stops.

The ride is the standard Oaks up and back with an extra detour further up the mountains to stretch the total ride out to about 70km or so.

Estimated time in the saddle is 4.5 hours.

My semi regular Saturday morning training Ride - Oaks up plus detour and then back down.

This is a long and steady training ride it is not a smash fest but definately a hard ride it is non stop and not a social outing.

Starting at Glenbrook at 5.30am sharp I head up the Oaks then from Woodford I head further up the mountain for some sweet single track riding and then back to Woodford and down the Oaks. Its a good 4 and a bit hours in the saddle without a break if you cant ride for that amount of time without a stop then this ride is not for you.
