Hi Eric
It’s pretty much a dirt fire trail.
You’d manage it comfortably on a CX bike. It might feel a bit bumpy on a normal road bike though.
I’ve driven Laceys Creek Road in a 2WD sedan with no problems. It’s steep and loose, but there are no large rocks.
As with most of this stuff, the trail is rough in spots, but if you’re used to gravel grinding I think you’d manage it.
Just take care on the descents – it goes down a bloody long way 🙂
Neil

Hey mate, cool pics and write ups. What is the condition of the fire trail down like? I am intending on hitting it with a road bike this weekend..dunno if its a bad idea or not! I’d appreciate any info. If it’s like the photo of Simon riding up the hill then that would be sweet, but if its knobbly rock and berms then I might struggle….

cheers,
eric

You covered in one day the same km that I did in three. Plus a lot more elevation as well.

In reply to Russel. Thanks Russel. I was "catching up" because I didn't get to ride much in the preceding week. Well that's my excuse :)
