Just be wary of the river crossings. Hopefully someone posts an update.

Blue skys at the moment, but the forcast does not look good for later.

We had a fair bit of rain yesterday and last night, but hasn't rained since just after midnight. My back deck is nearly dry which gives me a fair indication of the water down. http://www.weatherzone.com.au/nsw/central-tablel... weather zone says chance of rain all day today. If you're really keen I'd ride Oaks up and back, at least then you know if you can get across the causeway. I would say it would still be easily crossed at the moment as the rain hasn't been too heavy and no rain for a couple of weeks.
