Aimed at experienced riders visiting the state but needing to be shown where the tracks go, this is one of our more advanced rides, you will need to have reasonable MTB skills to tackle this as the terrain is quite technical. However, come prepared for an extremely rewarding adventure.
There are 2 options for this trip:
- The Blue Tier Descent
On this version we transport riders to the highest point on the ride at Poimena, from here we traverse the descent track over some amazingly varied terrain including technical rock lined ridges, fast open descents, rocky downhill sections and a few uphill sections to keep everyone honest. For much of the ride we are trvelling through magnificent old growth forest that Tassie is famous for. We finish at the Weldborough Pub for a well eared beverage of choice.
- The Full Workout BTD
This is the ride for those wanting to build on an all ready solid fitness base as we leave the vehicle at the finishing point and complete the whole ride on the bike. This involves a gradual climb on bitumen to the top of the Weldborough pass before moving to gravel for the undulating route to Poimena, the start of the normal BTD. The itinerary then mirrors the first option.
