Bikepacking to historic hut in the mountains
An overnight bikepacking adventure to Oldfield's Hut in the Australian high country. We pedalled up and over the Brindabella Ranges to reach the the for the night. This ride was held over the winter solstice so temperatures were below freezing at night however, we were lucky with the weather otherwise.

    I was doing some building on my block in Benambra when the cyclists were coming through town this year. Was cool to meet some of you, and chat to you, at the Hilltop Pub, and Benambra General store. Hope I can get fit enough to do this one day.

    I'm an AAWT hiker. If you blokes were seriously minded you would come off Hotham towards The Twins and Selwyn, down through the Woonangatta, across Howitt, King Billy, Down Brocks, along Low Saddle to My Sunday and then to Jamieson Licola Rd to Licola. Although, its probably too tough going for the padded shorts.

    • @senorfreebie

      From what I understood from conversations with participants this year, they came from Mt. Skene down to Dargo, then up to Omeo. I think they skipped Hotham altogether.

    My partner and I are planning to cycle over the alps this year and although we will not follow the route of the Hunt 1000, we will cross paths with it a couple of times. What time of year is ideal to attempt this? Presumably at the end of May/start of June it will be freezing and snow? Anyone got any advice they can share?

      If you have back problems, I use hard tail with seat post suspension. Full sus is heavier, steals storage space, and probably not essential.
