What a magic rode that is at dawn, absolutely beautiful. I managed to find that "track" from Keppel Hut to Lake Mountain. If I didn't have phone reception, I probably wouldn't have braved it with the bike, but it was okay. About 2-3kms of hike-a-bike through overgrown bush and countless fallen trees to climb over. Just had to keep an eye out for the orange triangles to stay on track and snakes were a concern, as I often couldn't see where my feet were being planted... It did eventually get me to the resort via the snow fields for some lunch, but out of time, had to descent on the main rd. Would have preferred, as you did, to turn around at the hut and enjoy the descent back down Lady Talbot, or explore more down Mt. Margaret. ...next time.

If you're feeling adventurous, link it up to Mt Margaret Road and that'll pop you out on the main road up near Buxton. There's a lot of beaut roads out there but not too many I'd recommend on 23mm tires. Take plenty of spare tubes, watch out for pinch flats on the rocks and have fun!<br />Andrew Hockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12794423001948988078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1850096824006501592.post-65197596398228598992015-11-09T19:16:50.101+11:002015-11-09T19:16:50.101+11:00Hi Andrew,

How far up Lady Talbot would be sensible on 23mm tires? And do you have any other suggestions around Marysville that we could check out on the day?<br /><br />Ps. I'm enjoying going through these posts, makes me want to get off road all the more!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06579224716315813780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1850096824006501592.post-82313471071276713542015-04-09T15:42:06.409+10:002015-04-09T15:42:06.409+10:00Thanks Mark!Thanks Mark!Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10135135182008371766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1850096824006501592.post-70200745275721387962015-04-08T14:11:53.482+10:002015-04-08T14:11:53.482+10:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07312904013968033334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1850096824006501592.post-16124224996166590622015-03-03T19:11:06.539+11:002015-03-03T19:11:06.539+11:00Glad to see more rides happening and more write up...Glad to see more rides happening and more write ups!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
