Dam conditions today.
It rained a lot last night here in E Subs.
Assume the Dam should therefore be given a few days rest???
Anybody have any insight?

Lane Cove National Park update for 01 Jul
Didn't venture in today, though I imagine its getting wetter again with this rain tonight (Friday 1 July). Purpose of the update is to note that there is now a sign at the De Burg's bridge end of the track indicating that there will be track closures from 20 to 24 June for (more) aqueduct work. Given that the aqueduct work near the Brown's Waterhole crossing went on for weeks longer than originally notified, there is probably an ongoing risk of track closure during on weekdays at this end of the trail.
If it ever dries out, I might get in there and see what's going on.

Suspension stuff up?
A few months ago I serviced my own forks. Not too hard following the instructions & with great result. There is one result that I'm actually very happy about, but it is a stuff up. That is, when my 'lock out' is on, my forks are quite stiff, but the suspension still works.
So now I have two settings. Instead of 'on' or 'off' like it's designed to be, it's 'on' or '70% off' which I think is BRILLIANT! Just what I wanted. So, how did this happen? How can I make sure this happens again next service!

Response from the mayor
Just thought I'd share a quick note I received (to my surprise) from the Warringah Council mayor Michael Regan. I sent an email to council after the recent trackworks lamenting the lack of consultation, and got a fairly detailed and good response letter from Michael Keelan (Manager Parks, Reserves and Foreshores). I replied thanking them for the reply and expressing my confidence that things are looking like improving in terms of communication between council and the mtb community. This was the mayor's response:
