Could you possibly supply me with some directions? (Most likely from the train station). Also I have never been there before so will you guys just be doing walk up's or drive up's?
Thanks, Matt.

yeah if you catch the train to flinders st you get on the very first platform (1)and the hurstbridge train comes about every 20 mins or so (with a few other trains coming every 5 mins) if you ride down the road that the general store is on (going towards diamond creek) you will come across a knocked down fence and all you do is walk up, we are leaving from cheltenham at 6:10 and will be doing walk ups. where abouts are u from?


PM me aswell

I am from Surrey Hill's. I was actually wanting directions from Hurstbridge station to the track (sorry, I should of said that in my first post). I am still unsure if I will be able to make it as I have to make a new hanger for my mates bike in the morning. So I would be getting there (if I end up going at all) a bit later in the day. Thus requiring directions from Hursty station.
Cheers, Matt.

ok well we should be there till around 2 till 3 ish maybe earlier or later im not sure. but when u get off the train there will be a sortv local shopping boulevard and as there is only one platform at hursty its pretty easy to spot,(turn right once you get off the station. hurstbridge is the end of the line on these tracks so ride back along the main road (or path) (very easy to spot) opposite the way you came. when you are riding along look out for anything that might look like a bike track, when you find it the fence will be down and you ride over it. at the bottom of the track is a valley type thing with a sort of dirt stop, head up the middle singletrack. PM me if you want my mobile just incase.

cheers ryan
