Mt Joyce is pretty fun for a few hours. It's a huge climb to the top but the descents are worth it. Rideable on a 100mm 29er or a long-travel hard tail but you'll want a 5"+ bike to fully enjoy it.
Brisbane Mountain Bike Shuttles (http://brisbanemtbshuttles.com/, unaffiliated) run no-booking shuttles out there fairly often if you're not a hill climb kind of guy.
Toowoomba looks good too after the most recent SEQ Gravity Enduro round. I haven't ridden there but the video of it (check out Jarred Graves' Facebook) makes me want to go.
We hit Mt Joyce today for the first time and it is legit! Its a shade over an hours drive depending on where in brissy you're heading from. We rode from 6am to midday - was too hot by then but we had hit enough trails to justify heading back for beers!!!Hey guys. Looking for a place to ride this coming week. Don't mind driving, but probably no more than 8hrs.
Where is somewhere within that time frame that's worth the trip? Looking to get a day or two's riding in.
Chuck out some ideas!!
OK, spill ya guts on where you went and how many wounds and scars you gotGreat thanks for the info. Might hit up Mt Joyce then. Have heard its good. But by the sounds of it, it's pretty awesome!
Save Buller for when we got a decent amount of time
