Tim's 40th Bikepacking Snowy Mountains Ride
Tim from "adVANture ST" wanted to celebrated his 40th birthday with a Bikepacking ride through the Snowy Mountains so he invited Bikepackers to join him on a 4 day ride from Jindabyne to Thredbo, Mt Pilot Wilderness and down to the Snowy River and then back to Jindabyne, I joined them on day 2 as we leave from the "Thredbo Diggings" campground.

    Amazing wooden structure built strong enough to carry trains over really deep gorges. I wonder if the earliest train crews felt much excitement crossing those bridges during floods.

    If nine mile looked that steep on video, it must have been so much worse going down in person. I think I made the right decision turning back at Thredbo.

    Thanks for making these Gerard. Really enjoyed them (and your other videos for that matter 🙂). Having followed the Vic Divide 550 event a few times it's a nice insight into some of the route. Shame about the big rain event that came through and cut your plans short. What was the plan from Mansfield? Here's a guess: Great Victorian Rail Trail to Tallarook and then onto the train back to Albury? Cheers.

    Nice ride mate. So much great riding to be had in Victoria. I visited Forrest and Anglesea in November. Absolutely fell in love with the place. Jeez I hope the Big River campsite is far enough away from that hoon wrecked intersection. What were the boom gates on the freeway about? Incase of a tunnel incident?

    • @davidbendall7846
      @davidbendall7846 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have ridden quite a lot in the Warburton, Reefton, Lake Mountain area. Unfortunately hoons are a real problem in this area. Obviously drawn by the beauty like it's cyclists. I've seen car groups of high powered cars doing donuts in the car park near the top of Donna Buang. Middli evof the day. One of the nicest climbs I've ever done. The car park is covered in rubber. I actually had a go at them but they didn't care at all. No police around and park rangers are powerless.

    • @davidbendall7846
      @davidbendall7846 ปีที่แล้ว

I own a Vivente Patagonia which is about 6 yrs old now. I knew there was a bridge across Lake Hume but I didn't know there was a ferry there as well. We had a few Cable ferries across the Clarence River up Between Grafton and Maclean. I've watched most of your videos over time when i was getting some idea of this area. Thanks for the great video.
