" The South West way of life, with its relaxed lifestyle, wineries and beaches makes it pretty special, but mountain biking is rapidly becoming a key addition to this already awesome package. Yes, the trails don’t have substantial amounts of elevation but they make up for it in their variety, quality and the associated MTB community. We’re blessed to have Dunsborough, Margaret River and Nannup all within an hours travel - and collectively they host a large scope of trails from your family orientated flow trail to a downhill national champs course. However, what makes it most special are the people that are part of it. Everybody is super relaxed and there for the joy of riding their bike. We probably get less riding done because of all the trailhead chats!

The little bottom corner of WA has definitely got the mountain biking bug and it’s only going to get better. "

 Man, looks like some really fun trails have popped up down there! Lots of flow and you ride them with style.

When I lived in Perth in '07 we spent lots of time up in John Forrest National Park and Mundaring. I've been back to WA twice in 2015 & 2017; onmy last trip I almost rented a bike in Bunbury, but bailed as I had no idea *where* to ride in that area.
It'd be super cool if I could meet up with some SouthWest locals and shred some trails the next I'm in the area.

 Some of the DH tracks in John Forrest got bulldozed but mundarings still good. If you end up back down that way I recommend hitting up one of the clubs or there’s even ride tours you can do now!
