Amber/Some Issues

I did a long lap this morning taking in the Lost Track and the complete race loop plus some extra stuff. There were plenty of other people out there too.

The Race Loop is amber. It is rideable provided you ride through the middle of all the wet stuff and rutted sections or it's just going to get wider at those points, of which there aren't too many. The second half of the track is definitely the wetter half. I also opened up the new route coming down from the top of the track that bypasses the section going down the eroded, ledgy section running parallel to Appin Rd. It's soft but will firm up with a bit of riding, just in time for tomorrows race and the Rock Wallaby on the 27th.

The Lost Track is red. There is a fair bit of trail widening going on and a bit of damage from motos, who are mostly riding the middle of the track. Some sections had rotor deep puddles. Yes, we rode through the middle of everything, getting wet feet, and I've since spent a while cleaning the bike!
