Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 12 Jun
Thursday arvo ride ended up being fire trails, snakes and the odd track near gun club road as well as a grass fighting run round the quarry!
Majorly wet , still lots of deep puddles and mud, Might be orange by the weekend. Didn't ride Kenny's or shaft because they would be shite.

Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 07 Jun
The absolute worst conditions for Glenrock this morning.
Heavy rain yesterday and overnight followed by a sunny Saturday morning.
This is when all the damage to trails we see happens.
The trails are not dry enough to handle cycling traffic.
People who must ride should try to stick to the fire-trails and management roads, please.

Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 01 Jun
Went in today to check out the Port to Port, overall the trails are dryer than yesterday and for the most part I am calling it green.
Few wet areas include;
Entrance to Baileys (will be wet for a while)
Exit of the creek on shaft (not too bad)
Baileys Management Trail (at the bottom of the hill)
Yuelarbah Management Trail in places
Fernleigh Management Trail
All the mud on my bike is from the management trails.
Everything else has been drying out nicely......fingers crossed the rain on the radar isn't too heavy.

Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 31 May
Just went in for a ride for the NPWS to inspect the Port to Port route and make the preliminary call on wet or dry route. For the most part its surprisingly dry in Glenrock. Of the trails I rode, here is an update.
Snakes and Ladders - Other then a puddle that needs to be de-bermed on the first right, all good.
Seismick - All Good
Pump Action - Other than the Quarry Clay, which wasn't as bad as expected, not to bad.
ReLoad - All Good
Kenny's - Few puddles/boggy ruts in the first 100m or so, then all good until the Bailey's Paddock entrance.
Seuss Land - Few puddles in the middle section, drying out.
Shaft - Wet after the creek crossing, otherwise fine. Little slippery in the reworked easement.
Hang Ten - has a section 10m long that is wet and slippery, and the big corner is holding some moisture.
Management Trails - Mixed bag, some wet bits mostly dry.
Grass Tree - Awesome
With no rain it will be dry quickly. At this stage the Port to Port will be on the dry weather loop unless we get a bit of rain overnight.

Turning 10 speed into a 11 speed
Hi all, just wondering if anyone out there knows if a 11 speed cassette will fit on a 10 speed wheel?
My wheels are Easton haven.
Thanks for any input.
Port to Port
Is anybody here going to race in this event? I am doing all 4 days, and I expect to be pretty stuffed by the end. 
Also, as this race will pass through Glenrock I wonder what sort of impact, if any, there might be on the trails. Although I've only been in Newcastle for 3 years I don't recall seeing any race days here.
Cheers,
Jake

Still the odd puddle, but otherwise good to go. Seismic rocking.

Glenrock State Conservation Area update for 16 May
Rode through this morning and this evening, commuting. Mostly pretty good, but very muddy on that paddock section before High Roller.
The lower fire trails still holding some water and NPWS have been through there of course so some loose soil from bottom of Baileys to base of S&L. Care needed.
Most of what I saw is Green.
But still quite a few isolated puddles.
Amber overall.

I haven't had a good look, but there's no way we could still be red.
If anyone rides please update.
