From 9am, we will unload and set up our bikes, fill up water bottles etc and plan to push off by 9:30am!

We will warm up with a 20km ride to Buxton (10km each way) then come back to the cars where we can drop off or pick up any supplies as well as use the facilities.
Once we are ready, the climb starts immediately.

The first regroup point is Nichol Lookout, which is at the 4.5km mark, this is the hardest part to get to on the ride.
Second regroup point is the ticket box at the Lake Mountain turnoff, then onto the summit. We will stop for a few photos before descending the mountain the same way we came up.
Regroup at the ticket box, then back to the cars at Marysville.

Once back at the cars, we can freshen up then we will head into town for lunch and coffee!

Distance: 65km
Elevation: 1300vm
