Forrest MTB

The last 2 days have been spent at Forrest in The Otway Ranges above the Great Ocean Road. Forrest has had some excellent development over the years for mountain biking as a destination. There are a variety of trails varying in technicality. As we rode over small logs and jumps there were many "whoops" of joy from the boys who really love the tracks. I have to keep reminding myself not to get too excited or over confident as I need to survive the holiday in one piece.

The camping is a pleasant change from Lorne which was getting very busy and is pretty much camping in a mown paddock with some shower blocks.

This afternoon we dropped in to the local micro brewery where an Irish Folk group was playing. It was great music and relaxation with a couple of boutique beers. There was no mountain biking to be had after that.

Tomorrow we will further explore the trails then maybe head down to Apollo Bay area Tuesday for a bit more time by the coast.
