NIGHT RIDE | Crafer | All Levels - Moderate Fitness
Join us for a NIGHT RIDE, starting in Crafers. We will wind our way down the Pioneer Women trail (taking in the sunset and city lights!) to Waterfall Gully Rd and up Chambers Gully, the Steub trail to Mt Lofty summit, and back to the cars!
All levels are welcome however this is a hefty 20+ km loop with a decent amount of climbing so a good fitness level is required.
E-bikes are always welcome.
Warm up with a drink by the fire at the Crafers Pub after.

Wear appropriate clothing (enclosed shoes, comfortable sports clothing)
Bring enough water and snacks for the ride! (there is a water fill station at the car park)

Prepare for the weather. As a wise Scotsman once said, “Ach, there’s no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing”. Think about sunscreen, a rain jacket, a change of clothes, etc.
