Route 6 This is how to get to McLeans Forest Park. This requires some road riding which can be busy in the early morning or evening. The 9.8km starts from the Harewood BP station.
Route 7 This is a great track up the port hills. It is suitable for experienced single track riders. J Line is very rocky and technical and a good example of single track in Christchurch
Route 8
When it heats up there is nothing better than a dip in the river. From Cycling The Dream it is a mere 6km to swimming spots in the river. Watch out for the deep ones. This one was over six feet deep! The Strava route is riding back into Christchurch. I'll try to do another that stays in the park.
