It's a 3-4hr ride around Tolly, riding up and down the trails, with as little stopping as possible, so bring whatever bike suits you the best.

Good man think Im gonna head down for both anyway, about 80% sure of Wednesday and defo on the Sunday. Wheelie injury is so so, wont be in a rush to fall off the back again.


Can some of you guys give Willie a bell, I think he was looking to go on the Wednasday.

I'd be interested in going up on Wednesday if you don't mind a tag along?

For some reason I thought this was happening this weekend. Maybe because I can't read dates!

Unfortunately, I'm not here on the 18th and neither is my twin, Antonio.

Would it be possible to clarify where the top carpark is for those who haven't been to Tolly in what feels like a lifetime? If I'm on the road to Moneyscalp from the direction of Newcastle is it on that road.

A wee GPS coordinate would be super.
Thanks, appreciate it.

Sure was VERY deep in places. Been a while since I've seen someone lose their entire front wheel in Tollymore. Thought you handled it with Super G-Narr cool and calmness though.

Watchtower and Champs were relatively gloop free. Slippy as feck though. Castlewellan was riding CLASS considering the weather of late.

lol I just lifted my deck this weekend in prep for a building a sunroom. My wife wanted me to chop it up for fire wood but I cut it up into 80cm lengths saying that it was quicker and easier to store that way.. but secretly I thought it would make some great north shore ramps and drops ;)
