Hey there, fairly new to the area & looking to get out. Rode the Little Oven Circuit this weekend (that's a great trail)
I've heard of a few good rides heading out from Kalamunda, but I have no GPS or sense of direction,so any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Dan

I'd like to get out for a ride but I'm not familiar with Perth trails. What sort of all mountain trails are there?

Monkey Creek

I'm not sure where it is but I've heard a few crew at the bike shop talking about a trail called Monkey Creek, they reckon parts of it are so steep if your not careful you'll end up hanging out of a tree,

hence the name "Monkey Creek"

Does anyone know where this is?

Sounds like a lot of fun. I

Sounds like a lot of fun. I splashed out on a gravity dropper seatpost as I was ending up doing the unicycle all the time on my trails at home.

monkey creek

Yeah Ive ridden that.
Its waaayyyy coool.
one of those trails where just when you think its getting boring something jumps out at you.
Keeps you on your toes(if you have any left by the end of the ride).

What sort of .....

XC, love single track with s few drops chucked in.

You should check out Pile

You should check out Pile Rd, Wal is always waffling on about it & it can't be as good as he makes out, but I think that's just me being jealous.

Thanks for that, I'll be

Thanks for that, I'll be heading out for a look.

Pile rd

Yeah I am lucky enough to be able to ride the best trails in the west every week.
I hope my waffling will create a serious bout of jealousy. When you ride these trails, you will just want to move to the country permanately, just to be close them.

Pile rd

Shit!!! I didn't realise Pile rd was an actual place,

I thought it was the name of a trail that was so full on if you rode it you'd get Piles (not literally)

DOH!!!

piles

You would get piles if you rode all of it.

If the uphills push them out

If the uphills push them out do the downhills shake them back in again?

monkey creek

watch out for the drop bears.
They are in season at the moment.
They are worse than magpies.

Danger!

Yeah the drop bears are pretty scary!!

I'm more worried about the hoop snakes though
