Chambers Gully / Cleland | All Levels - Moderate Fitness
Join us for a ride through Cleland and the Mt Lofty area. This ride will be less technical - more fire roads than single trails but will require a moderate level of fitness for the climbs. This ride will be about 30kms all up - we will be winding our way from the bottom of Waterfall Gully up to almost Mt Lofty (exact loop TBD). Don't let the climbing scare you off though as it is a beautiful ride!
E-bikes are always welcome - depending on the number of e-bikes, the group may split up.
Please meet us at the Chambers Gully Carpark on Waterfall Rd.

What to bring
All riders are expected to be self-sufficient. Here are some things you might like to bring/think about:
Make sure your bike is in good working order - bring any spares you might need
Wear appropriate clothing (enclosed shoes, comfortable sports clothing)
Bring enough water and snacks for the ride! (there is a water fill station at the car park)
Bring any relevant medications
Prepare for the weather. As a wise Scotsman once said, “Ach, there’s no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing”. Think about sunscreen, a rain jacket, a change of clothes, etc.
