Route Details

We haven't been out to Silverstream/Whakaehu since the clocks changed and hopefully the tracks have recovered from all the recent spinning. Starting from the carpark, we'll head along Racemans to the bottom of Steve Amies. This relatively short but grunty track climbs to and along the ridgeline, eventually reaching Rollinsons's Road. We'll then head back down the road to the Tunnel Track entrance and back to where we started. All up, it should be around 12.5 km and around 550 metres of climbing. The forecast is for a hot day with a late change, so come prepared for both.

Great to be back out in Silverstream again. Bit of a curve ball with the road closed for some rally, but the extra two ks made for a good warm up and down. Dog the dog made it look way too easy
