Description: This ride starts just above the sign of the kiwi alone the shared Thomson Track. Carry on around the top along the single Bowenvale Traverse until you meet the Huntsbury Track, From here it\'s all down hill on the grassy \'Serpent\' and more single track on the Bowenvale Trail before emerging at the car park on Bowenvale Avenue. The Thomson Track is a shared walking/biking track that runs just under the Summit road, mainly through bush.The Bowenvale Traverse carries on below the Summit Road along single track. There are the inevitable rocky sections to negotiate. The Serpent starts from part way down the Huntsbury Track to the left. It is appropriately named because of the zig-zag path it takes down the hill. Steep in places, it can also be rocky and rutted. The Serpent joins onto the single track Bowenvale Trail which winds the rest of the way down the hill. There is a short section where the track widens before reaching the Bowenvale Avenue car park.
