The Oaks update for 21 Apr

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
Area: 
The Oaks
Status: 
Green/Open

The sandy sections are starting to show fatigue from all the Easter traffic. Some sections are becoming soft and care for beginners is needed. The up-hill sections (Woodford - Glenbrook direction of travel) are rocky and, due to the traffic, starting to become loose and choosing your line is important for free and easy up-hill riding. Apart from all that, the track is holding up quite well and is very fast.

Do you have more information?

Sorry mate - Synergy
I get them mixed up

A link to a very interesting article on their trail building at OMV

Demand for trails outweighs supply by about 5 years I reckon
So we need to get behind these initiatives or we forfeit our right to complain

And don't forget to bring your bike!
