Thanks for doing your videos - good to watch. I’ve often looked at maps of the pathways and stuff south of the Brisbane River but some of the roads looked a bit dodgy. Being from north of the Brisbane River, I’d be lost if I went further than Southbank and I wondered if it was worth the effort riding on some of the dodgier roads further south (I was fairly sure that south of the river somewhere there be dragons). Well, watching your videos cleared that up. Anyway, to the point. If you ever go back to Wamuran, you can ride further west from Wamuran out to Woodford without too much trouble (and staying off the D’Aguilar Highway, which is a pretty risky proposition). It’s about 20-Kilometres from Wamuran to Woodford. If you leave the trail head at Wamuran, you could ride on Station Road (which magically turns into Gamgee Road without anyone noticing) for about three or four kilometres. It’s a quiet road traffic-wise, there’s no road shoulders (unless you count the grass on the side of the road) but it’s OK to ride and it runs parallel to the highway. When you get to the end of Gamgee Road (at Bracalba), you can take a short path to get into what’s called the “Glasshouse Mountains Conservation Park” and follow the line of the old railway through the forest for a while. It’s a nice ride there. You come out of the forest onto a road called Raaen Road, and if you follow that a little way, it comes back out onto the highway again very close to the little village of D’Agiular. It’s OK to ride the highway into D’Aguilar there because the traffic is slowed to 60KmH through the D’Aguilar village. So from the Dag Pub, it’s all off-road again as the Council has built a concrete pathway from D’Aguilar into Woodford. Woodford is a nice enough little town, lots of shops and stuff, but the weirdest thing there is out the front of the RSL. Most RSL places have a small cannon or ship propeller or aircraft propeller out the front, well not the Woodford RSL - they have a whole Leopard tank out the front. On the way home from Woodford, you could, instead of riding back down Raaen Road, you could turn right instead into McLeod Lane and take a mountain-bikey type loop back into Wamuran (comes out at R. Williams Road). When you get back to the highway you cross back into Station Road and from there it’s only about a mile back to Wamuran. And just something else … there’s two fairly long Northside pathways you might have missed (I don’t see any vids. of them anyway). The Cabbage Tree Creek pathway is probably worth a ride. It starts on the Brisbane side of the Samford Range near the end of a street called Linkwood Drive (I think the suburb there is Ferny Hills) at the back of the mountain bike paths in the Samford Conservation Area. The fire roads and mountain bike paths in the Samford Conservation area are a nice ride too. Lots of places you could start where there is parking not real far from the start like Ironbark Gully or at the Ferny Grove Train Station too I guess. Anyway, Cabbage Tree Creek and the pathway starts near the end of Linkwood Drive (Ferny Hills) and follows Cabbage Tree Creek about 25Km out to Shornecliffe where the mouth of the creek is (you’ve been there when you went down the Moreton Bay Cycleway). There’s a few places where you would have to ride a hundred yards or so on the road, but it’s not bad. You can’t follow the creek for the last 5Km from the mouth at Shorncliffe, but there is pathways and quiet backstreets to ride on. Downfall Creek is the last biggish northside path you haven’t ridden (I think you haven’t anyway). It starts in Trouts Road (Everton Park) behind the Everton Park Tavern. It OK and runs about 10Km out to the Gateway bikeway at Nudgee. There are some shitty bits as you get near Chermside where you have to ride the footpath for a kilometre or so, and crossing the Gympie Road traffic sewer near the Chermside Shopping Centre, but otherwise it’s a nice ride - bit short maybe. I’ve left some petrol money in your ko-fi.com in case you go to Cabbage Tree Creek - or just for coffee if you don’t Anyway, thanks for the videos - Dave
Dave, you're a legend!! Thank you so much, not just for the petrol money, but both of the fantastic bikeways you've just described in incredible detail. Absolutely love it. I'll def be mapping those out and will keep my eyes peeled open for the Leopard Tank! It's interesting timing that you've pointed out Cabbage Tree Creek from Ferny Grove Train Station, because I was just today mapping out my upcoming exploratory ride upon the Ferny Grove Rail Trail which commences just before Ferny Grove Train Station and heads out to Yugar Train Tunnel where it ends, which I think is worthwhile showcasing. Who knows... I might find a dragon there😂
@@jelbuilderfilms … and yeah, sorry for being a bit wordy (again) … when I was in high school there was an urban myth about a place called “The Bat Cave”. Well, “The Bat Cave” is the old Yugar train tunnel - and it’s about as far as you can get on the old rail trail (it went all the way to Dayboro “back in the day” apparently). There’s not much left of the railway to Dayboro after the “Bat Cave”. Could be dragons there too - I couldn't even see bats there 😁
You're pretty resourceful and don't need me to tell you how to get there (but I will anyway just in case). To get to the “Bat Cave”, when you get to Samford, opposite the Samford Pub there’s a road called Station Road. Go down Station Road, and follow the path next to the road until just before you get to the dog park, turn right and follow the path across a causeway and through the Samford Parklands, past tennis courts and the Bowls Club and over a fairly new pedestrian bridge across the South Pine River, turn left (into Gibbons Road) and then right into a road called Currawong Road. Go to the end of Currawong Road, and then go further and you will get to the Yugar Train Tunnel . It’s off road to the tunnel and probably a bit muddy after the rain. There's lots of ways to get there. The old way to get to Currawong Road (before the pedestrian bridge was built) was to go down Station Road past the dog park and you would get to another (really nice) causeway over the South Pine River. After that you had to ride through a paddock until you got to the road and then turned right and rode until Currawong Road. Going back to the beginning, after leaving Ferny Grove station, you go through the forest and onto a road on the other side (McLean Road South). Keep an eye out on the right for a stone cairn - that’s where the worst train accident in Queensland happened. It’s only small and easy to miss. I think I better stop annoying you now ...
Just went there today, and it was fantastic! 85% pretty awesome cycleways, but some dodgy road riding here and there - especially Camp Mountain Rd and definitely Gibbons Rd. But got to the tunnel and saw the massive cage blocking it and guess what.... it was un-padlocked. No prize for guessing who got to ride his bike ride to the very end! Had sort of a 'Batman' moment with all the little critters flying all around me, lol. Samford Valley is town centre was busy as, but I absolutely enjoyed it. First time for me there.... even saw two donkeys in the park. Not people, the animal kind. Had fun filming this one.
Thanks very much for Posting. My partner and I did that same ride in January 2023. Great ride and we enjoyed it. I noticed the saddle on your bike and it looks like a very comfy one, I would greatly appreciate it if you could let me know where I can get one for myself, Love your posts and we're a big of yours. Cheers mate.Kind regards William Alama-Powell and Eveline Hermans.
It is a great bikeway, that's for sure. Thanks for watching, really appreciate it! Re the saddle, here's a video I did on it on my review channel... th-cam.com/video/xaJ-SRlki1c/w-d-xo.html I noticed it's gone up a bit now, but still great value for money. I've put it only my regular non-electric mtb now and I love it. The link on Amazon is this: amzn.to/4dNoqX8 .... however there's a few of these styles available from a number of different companies, all Chinese-manufactured obviously and simply rebadged, but I do like them and think they are very comfy, and good bang for buck.
Thanks for posting, I found it very intersting. A friend (retired) has recently moved back to Qld from NSW and now lives in Caboolture. He suggested we do this ride, but it has yet to happen because we have both been too busy ( I too am retired). But it will happen as we are both keen and as you have demonstrated, it is an easy ride. After watching your video we may end up extending it to other destinations. Regarding the railway line to Wamuran ("Wham-you-ran"). In the 1980's I was employed by Qld Railways, based at "Mayne" (next to Bowen Hills) as a "Fireman" and subsequentlyas a "Driver's Assistant" (when two-man crewing was introduced). Despite the great pay, I left the job as I could not cope with the crazy shift work hours. But I digress. During my employment as a Fireman I only did a few shifts to Wamuran. From memory the two big reasons to for the train was to collect pineapples and timber, with pineapples being the main product. The pineapples were destined for the "Golden Circle" cannery/factory located at Northgate, Brisbane. The train station located adjacent to the Golden Circle cannery is "BIndha Station". The "Bindha Shunt" was a separate job on the roster sheet. I remember being rostered on the "Bindha shunt" more often than the "Wamuran" shift. When doing either job I reecall picking up pineapples off the ground that had fallen off the wagons. If the pineapples were split, the train driver and I ate them on the loconotive. It was incredible just how sweet and juicy those pineapples were!! (the pineapples came from Wamuran and the surrounding areas, e.g. Glasshouse Mountains). They tasted so much better than any tinned pineapple I have ever purchased. The tinned product tastes so pale when compared to the fresh pineapples.
Bracalba station is now at the Caboolture show grounds. There was a siding where there was a quarry to get rocks for ballast. Moodlu was a set of flashing lights paid for by the estate builder nearby. I use to service them whe the line was still open..
The train line went to Kilcoy. Woodford is the next station. You can ride that quiet inland road to the forest up further. Definately the best bit of the rail trail.
D'Aguliar Hwy is a long road that links Cabooture to Blackbutt, which then takes you further to Nanango and Kingaroy. That's why it's a busy road at Wamuran.
The rail trail from caboolture to wamuran needs to continue through Woodford to kilcoy, then onwards to the Brisbane valley highway junction to link up with the BVRT. However, the only hiccup would be the crossing at the upper reach of the Brisbane River just before the highway junction. The bridge would have to support an outrigger structure for the path to continue onwards.
Extending the rail trail beyond Wamuran would be good however the corridor was sold off to private land holders. You’ve also got ANGRMS (Narrow Gauge Railway Museum) who use part of the corridor at Woodford. Also parts of the old corridor are under water with the construction of the Somerset Dam near Kilcoy.
Cool little Video, thanks for sharing it. That’s my Foot and Bottom Bracket that ruined your Atwood Street Footage 🤣 I’ve ridden over 6000km up and down the Caboolture Wamuran Rail Trail since last December. I agree they could have preserved a bit more of the Heritage along the way but I reckon it’s an awesome community resource, I love it.
Your foot and bottom bracket can photobomb my video anytime, not a problem🤣 I do remember seeing you going back and forth several times, and you're even starring in my shot at the end of the video as I'm enjoying my brew. You've certainly clocked up your k's on that trail!! It's great you found my video and left a comment. Really appreciate it, Perry.
Thanks for that.... I'll check out the brackets, that noise is extremely annoying. I've just replaced my rear wheel free hub with a new Shimano 12s Microspline, hoping that the noise would be gone, but its not... but never thought about the motor brackets. Will take a closer look. :)
Today I Drove For 14 Hours 900 Miles From San Antonio Texas To My Home In Tucson Arizona. AS I Turned On My Computer I See Jelbuilder Has Uploaded A Video. What A Nice Way To End My Vacation. Nice Bike Views.
At time 11:20, Jelbuilder is looking at what remains of the Moodlu Railway Station actual location. The adress is 199 Williams Rd, Moodlu. There was a rail siding there too, as there was a rock quarry behind the hill in Williams Road. There used to be signage on the Dag Hwy telling everyone with a 2 way radio to turn it off till past the signs. Williams Rd is above the bridge which he thinks is a "tunnel". The white painted points handle is there as it was in the day for the siding tracks; so definitely not a 'planted' object at all. The board at Caboolture end clearly shows the Moodlu Station, but he didn't notice it, even as he said 'no stations" shown. Near the Station was also once the Moodlu State School (closed in 1947). At the Wamuran end, the bike shelter place is on the actual location of the Wamuran Railway Station, and the building is now at Woodford 2 foot gauge railway station.
@@jelbuilderfilms have you traveled down to the Northern Rivers trail yet? It’s 24k one way, and is on another level!! Change of subject, best Barney Hike I have done was Upper Portals to Lower Portals, overnight!….in the rain. That is a video worth documenting!!👍
You didn't notice the climb because of the ebike. It's quite good in the sense that getting back down is pretty cruisy, for a weaker rider. Recommend it for a social ride and with children.
Word is that people in Wamuran wanted it bitumen for the kids to ride to High School in Caboolture. We liked it better before! Wamuran is on the way to Kilcoy and Somerset Dam, hence the traffic. You should have had coffee at CJs, we do.
Gravel is definitely more fun. I've always got my coffee on me :) And I'm just about to get a genuine portable expresso machine that's battery operated with 20bar pressure and heats my water, and its the size of my water bottle.... so that will be interesting to show once I get it.
@@jelbuilderfilms Hehe, too easy, mate :). Love ya work. I walked some of the trail between Wondai and Tingoora a few years back. I got a nice surprise on the walk. There's a camel farm next to the trail!
I understand wanting to see artefacts. Unfortunately they require maintenance and WHS therefore $$$. Many councils may be opting for removing them for safety, tidiness and less vandalism.
I keep looking, but they seem to be eluding me. I'm beginning to think they are only mythical creatures, up there with big foots in the snow, trolls underneath bridges, and politicians who keep their promises...🤣

Sweet.... can't wait.
Thank you for your vids
Most welcome.... thanks for checking them out. 👍👍
The trail through the Glass House National Park is well worth the trip. You can find your way through to Woodford with out getting on the highway.

The forest section up further off Mylett rd is very nice. About 6kms each way.
If I did better research, I would have ridden that further up. Thanks for the info :)
Awesome video mate, would u ever consider doing the Blackbutt rail trail truly magnificent

Your riding on the rail trail. It was gravel when it was first open. Much better then.
