Published Date Written by Nick Bowman
Kinglake DH Track Update

Parks Victoria has come to the party!

The Kinglake project is of national significance with the installation of competition level DH Track in Parks Vic tenure as well as the construction of an intermediate level DH and flow track. All with public shuttle access! This project naturally fosters long term community benefits related to recreation and tourism to help revitalise the area after the 2009 Fires.

An epic edit by Scotty T

5 years ago the Central Tablelands Mountain Bike Club lost the lease on their downhill track up at the State Mine Reserve in Lithgow. This track was a part of both the NSW State Downhill Series and the Australian National Downhill Series. Since then the club has battled through thick and thin trying to find an area suitable to hold both State and National races again. Continued in first comment..

Picked up this frame a while ago but as I hadn't had time for DH of late it's been collecting dust.
Last week I had a bit of spare time so thought I'd build it up with parts off my old Norco in the hopes it would inspire me to get back into it.

Here's my first test ride with some self shot footage using the contour 1080p taped to trees or set up on the back of the ute and stuff.

Knapsack DH Jumping

A variety of tracks with a mix of firetrail and technical single track. Currently a bit of a maze which allows for creating your own loop.

Also includes a legal DH Track.
