    Yeah that was us, andy mac was in that group too. Just rode that little climb you had at the start of your vid, bogs behind orange hut then a loop through the pine forest before heading back to the pram side.

    Is the rollercoaster track 4wd width the whole way? Does it start were Titi Rd forks really obviously?

    Apparently Karl Power has taken a Christini 2wd bike up the devils staircase. Mead is also supposed to have ridden up in the middle of summer and we've seen him ride Wayne's track solo in reverse (uphill) while we're coming down it. He's a machine.

    Cheers for the map Blagger - definitely a few tracks on there that need exploring.

    oh cool. Yeah rollercoaster is a big obvious 4wd track to start. Looks like a main road at the start. Yeah it is pretty much 4wd width the whole way but bugger taking one of those down there. It's really rocky so makes a nice change from really boggy!

    We've ridden up the staircase mid summer. twas hard work. 3 men pushing on the big downhill before the final big rocky step. Could ride/push the rest of it alone tho. the first step was the most fun (the bottom step) big run up and bounce her up. Ya wanna do it on an old tyre tho... Lots of rock burnouts
