Hi from Melbourne, Australia

[BushLevo]

Hi All.
Just started riding my first emtb, a Specialized 2019 Turbo Levo Expert. What a great bike! I've always ridden Spesh FSR's, but the Levo is great for the hills in my area - they get steeper as you get older
Cheers.

Welcome along..

Welcome BushLevo sounds like you're ready for both the steeps of Pascoe Vale and the You Yangs equally, Yarra Trails, Lysterfield, Plenty Gorge etc etc...plenty is right. emtb nirvana & probably my favourite large city

Hi, I'm flying out to Melbourne in a couple of hours, staying down near Mornington.
I've heard you can hire a bike at Red Hill for a days riding, do you know if that's correct?

 

[BushLevo]

Sorry for the delay guys, I've been away the last couple of weeks.

My riding area is chiefly the Pakenham Upper, Gembrook and Tonimbuk back roads. Bunyip state park is closed until further notice following the fires last March, but it has some great tracks.

I've also done bushwalking in the Red Hill and Arthurs Seat area...there are some great mtb tracks here also.

I'm shortly taking my bike to Lysterfield for a tryout

I'm usually riding around Lysterfield Sunday mornings occasionally a sneaky mid-week ride.
Based in Frankston I also get down to Red Hill very rarely
