its gonna be warm but have showers for the next few days.

Look the amount of rain that has been down there recently, its gonna be wet, so I strongly suggest bringing replacement brake pads.

i road wingello 3 days ago and it was suprisingly dry(although not an ideal place to take a 19kg 190mm travel beast),but the rain down here in the last few days has been VERY heavy.That been said i did appin 2 days ago and welby(mittagong)yesterday and both were fine to ride,only alittle muddy.

rode appin for a few laps today,is a little damp but was fine,actually made cornering in the sandy bits easier i think.i think this is my new favourite trail after red hill and menai!
