Mt HAY trail e-BIKE - Extras Package (CONFIDENT BEGINNER SKILL LEVEL)

This is a self-guided ride. We meet in Katoomba, and give you a comprehensive rider briefing before you set off (if min numbers have been met).

This is a beautiful touring E-BIKE adventure. You ride though the towns of Katoomba and Leura before entering the National Park. This ride is approx 40km and is absolutely prefect for the e-bike. 

If you have more time than half a day, opt for the full day e-bike service. After the Mt Hay ride, you can add catch the train with your bike to Blackheath (15 min train trip) and ride the Hanging Rock trail, and maybe even Anvil Rock and Govetts Leap road rides, before catching the train back to Katoomba (15min train trip). WHAT A DAY!!!

### BMBA self guided tours and hire require minimum numbers for the day to go ahead. The booking system will send a pending order email confirmation upon your online booking. When minimum bookings are received, bookings/rides will be automatically confirmed. Regardless of whether ride goes ahead or not, you will receive an email from the owner (Sam) the night before your ride to confirm the status and info about the ride and logistics. Rides that do not go ahead will be instantly refunded, or you can choose another date and the booking will be moved...whatever suits you best! The above is not totally inflexible and Sam will help, with pleasure, where ever possible.
