Of all the paths you take, make sure a few of them are dirt! 🚵♂️ @rolykyme_ taking flight along one of #Dwellingup's renowned mountain biking trails.
There are #trails that meet all skill levels here, adding a thrilling #adventure, as you meander through native redgum and jarrah forests, past some of @australia's oldest rocks and along dedicated #MTB trails in Murray Valley.
