Ride Summary

This is a very popular ride due to its proximity to Brisbane, and often the beginning of a longer days ride for Brisbane riders.

Ride Description

The ride begins in The Gap, and winds its way up the Mount Nebo Road towards the top of the mountain. The road is on the whole in pretty good condition, however at times the surface can be patchy where repairs have been made. A good mix of technical 40km sections as well as fast turns and sweeping corners as this road winds its way up to the small town centre of Mt Nebo.

Once at the top of the mountain, most riders will continue on to the even more popular Mt Glorious, one of Brisbane’s truly great roads for rmotorbikes.

Directions

Begin this ride from ths Brisbane suburb of The Gap, following the signs for Mt Nebo.

Best Thing About This Ride

The proximity to Brisbane (if that is where you live of course) and the variety of road.

What Else To Look Out For

Road surface can be patchy, road debris on the road and watch out for damp sections. Also, I have been told that some residents of Mt Nebo are not bike friendly and have been known to throw gravel on the road to deliberately cause bike accidents. Not too sure how accurate this allegation is, but best to ease on the side of caution and take it easy. Probably save you some money as well as this road is heavily policed.
