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 a few other people out there too. If more people were nice to their mothers every day they wouldn't need a special day and could have been out riding instead!

The Race Loop is amber to green. It is very good with only a few wet sections that still need you to ride through the middle of all the wet stuff and rutted sections or it's just going to get wider at those points. The second half of the track is definitely the wetter half. 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 is firming up nicely and will be good for the Rock Wallaby race provided there is no rain between now and then. If it stays dry for the following weekend the new section will be brillaint, having had a few hundred riders bed it in!

The Lost Track is red to amber. 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 deep puddles. Yes, we rode through the middle of everything, and I've since spent a while cleaning the bike, again!
