Red Hill update for 15 May
Despite there still being a few puddles about - I'm giving this a green. I don't get why this area hasn't managed to totally dry out yet, as it hasn't rained for weeks and the terrain is all on sandstone ridges. ???
Also, I spotted a baby snake that managed to slither off the trail as I passed - so they're still about with this weather, take care.

Rookie Mistake - almost cost me medium sized $$$s
So I had my first ever puncture, changed the tube and got on with the ride. Got back to the car and realized there was a massive kink in the tire. Hub was okay, but the actual tire itself had a massive bulge on one side.
I got home deflated the tube, took the tire off, put it back on, same thing...
Called the bike shop, told them my 4 week old Bontrager XDX 29in tire died after a slow speed puncture. Was all ready to buy a replacement when I decided to put a bit more air in the front seemingly broken tire.
Damage to Trees Near Oxford Falls Trailhead
I've had some reports this week from the residents who live near the top carpark area that a number of trees have been cut down along the main dirt road heading toward the model plane club gates, with the cut trees being placed across the road. It is expected that this occurred some time Tuesday evening and the vandalism is being taken fairly seriously.
If anyone was in the area on Tuesday for some late DH runs or perhaps a night ride and happened to see or hear anything please send the details to [email protected] and I'll pass them on to the relevant parties.
Sun morning spin
Any takers for a spin on sunday morning - 10am ish? Sociable pace - easy on location.
