This is a little late, but I went up to red hill on friday arvo for a quick exploratory ride, and was amazed at how wet it still was.
Most of the trails running down from the top were more like a watercourse with a steady flow of water trickling down, and a lot of fill between rocks has been washed away. A lot of the lines & sections that were barely rideable before are now even more difficult, and the ruts have become deeper.
Its bizarre, but you'll be in rim deep claggy clay one minute and a few metres further on you'll hit bone dry sand. It makes for a great training ride with all that extra weight clinging to your tyres. I wouldn't bother unless you want to spend a few hours afterwards cleaining your bike...
