You Yangs Map

[Bender is CRAZY]

Hey

I'm taking my parents up to the You Yangs saturday and i was wondering if anyone has a map of the XC and DH trails.

Oh, and can people still ride the xc trails whilst the DH race is on?

Thanks

I dont see why the XC course(s) wouldnt be rideable on the Northern side of the Stockyards... Just try and stay off the DH course, your not going to want big burlly DH'ers chassing you :P I am planning on taking the almost finished XC rig to the race; although it's more of a photographic excursion.

Maps I'm not sure there are any really, GMBC and Parks Vic should produce some maps as the Stockyards is pretty complex network of trails.

Western Plantation will no doubt be open, as it's on the other side of the park (Stony Creek Road). Thats pretty flat, makes a pretty good training loop, or "beginner's " trail. It can be a bitch if it's wet though :oops:

As far as I'm aware there aren't any maps of the trails as Cul said but there are maps of the different areas available at the main park entrance.

The Stony Creek Road course is probably the best as far as keeping away from the DH'ers but it's fairly limited as far as trail options. Just one 7 km loop.

I'd head for the stockyards and keep away from the DH course personally, it'll be easy to spot from the bottom of the hill and there's heaps of trails on the other side of the dry lake. Can't miss it.

I may also be out there with the XC rig as long as my neck is moving again by then.

I think there is a map in the ORCA book version 2.
