Dam condition after the rain?

Thanks for that, I'll trundle over in the arvo.

Cheers

Yeah I rode there on Sat afternoon, no wet areas to speak of. The track is in good condition. In my opinion it's a shame that the firetrail part after heartbreak hill has been levelled out so much, a lot of those rocky uphill sections are smooth now, they used to require some effort to pick a line, now you just coast up

... sounds like I need to sell the hardtail and buy a cyclocross fixie instead!

Hopefully some heavy rain will do for it what it did for the fire road that comes down from behinds the Lutheran retirement homes, after they graded that section last time.
