Terry Hills rideable?

Heading up to Terry Hills tomorrow morning and hoping to get dome dirt under the tyres. Anyone ridden up there today?

Thinking Duck Holes and Centre and/or Perimeter and Long.

Will have to stay on the black stuff if it's too muddy!

Dan (or anyone else who's interested) I'll be at the quarry rd trailhead (hornsby side) at 7am tomorrow to get some dirt under my wheels. Mostly too steep to have much standing water Smiling

One of the most underrated firetrails in northern sydney - great views if you can catch a breath!

In my experience terrey hills will be rideable but have unavoidable standing water in places, though I haven't ridden there recently so it's not a first hand account.

@dan
It absolutely pissed down at 8am this morning at the main shop car park. Seriously, I've never seen so many people try to find cover. It seemed to go straight down Nerang and all the way down the perimeter trail. Torrential!!
So I'd give it a miss again.

Is that the trail I rode with you and Adam? Could be a good option.. how many K's are you riding?

Hey Rob, I road Quarry Track this morning. It was ok when I got there, then it bucketed down while I rode and was very soggy for the return journey. But it's been sunny and windy this arvo so should be ok tomorrow - just a bit wet here and there. Might see you there!

Turra must have missed the downpour this morning!

@dan Yep that's the one Smiling Probably doing 25kmish consisting of a lap of OMV from 0620 then quarry and return to OMV by 0815 for maybe another cheeky lap depending on time - I need to be on a boat at bobbin head by 10am Eye-wink

@jp would be great to say g'day and catchup if you're out and about.

Apparently most of OMV is fine but Lava Flow is closed.
