Blue Dirt

I always try to mark the Summer solstice with an adventure of some sort. The actual solstice was around 9.45pm in North East Victoria, so I figured it was a good opportunity to charge up the night lights and head up to Ropers Lookout.

I’m stoked for some epic backcountry night rides in the mountains this Summer

Gotta say I’ve been enjoying revisiting backcountry rides I last rode some 20+ years ago! It’s a real treat to create new memories on those same trails.

It’s great to be living near a large body of water again. Pretty cool that it’s up in the mountains and only a few minutes ride from Falls Creek too.

How stoked are Didj the kelpie and I about Dec 01, the official day one of Summer? Maybe just a little!

Pretty hard to believe in the last seven days we’ve scored back to back days of perfect mountain weather for the season opening weekend, followed by a wild snow storm mid week, and now back to sunny skies just in time for this weekend.  

It’s been an epic few weeks getting ready for Ignition, the MTB opening season here at Falls Creek, and boy did it go completely off!

We’re set for a huge Summer in the mountains 🙂
