Brisbane's home road: tight, shaded and demanding, climbing the D'Aguilar Range from Samford.

SeasonAny month; slippery under the canopy after rain

Narrow, steep and relentlessly cornered, with a surface that rewards smoothness and punishes optimism.

It is busy with cyclists, cars and other riders at the weekend, and the blind corners mean you meet them with no warning.

The cafe at the top is the point for most people. The road down the far side toward Wivenhoe is quieter and just as good.
