We will then follow the closed back road (closed to cars, not bikes) to the summit. from there to the summit, the distance is only 16 km, but there is 700 m of climb. When you reach the summit, you can roll most of the way back to the start. If any riders would rather start at Launching Place and tackle the full ride, they will need to leave at about 9:15 am, so that they can join the others at Panton Gap at 10 am.
