About

Named after the Wallabies that are often found on the trail and their ability to almost find themselves under you wheels. Hand built and flowing in a similar style to Tukonohi Trail. There are a couple of short, flat pedalling sections but overall it's a fun descent that is action packed with small features. A couple of drops require the rider to be able to loft their front wheel - if you're riding it for the first time be sure to take it easy and scope it out. One of them is only obvious when you're right on top of it - so don't be too enthusiastic on your first ride down. If you're not sure, walk or go round the couple of more technical sections - you'll still love the riding on the remainder of it The nature of the trail changes a little with the terrain, a few roots, a few greasy corners if it's damp underfoot. Pest Control crosses over the singletrack climbing trail of Sidewinder - it's clearly marked so you can't get it wrong.
