Knapsack Reserve update for 22 Apr

Amber/Some Issues

Still very wet behind the soccer fields and best too avoid that section altogether. Water is still flowing down some of the gulleys, so slow down and try not to widen the track.

Lapstone Zig Zag is also very wet and the track past the RAAF base to the mushroom farm is even more eroded from the runoff that is now coming of the highway.

Do you have more information?

Winmalee update for 21 Apr

The single track at halcyon has a lot of standing and running water that needs time to dry, the grotto run i completed today, it is rideable but after it is in complete flood, blue gum swamp is again under water and would be best to stay right away from it, too many people are riding it and making the bog holes massive, shaws ridge is rideable as it is up on the ridge, grose head south fire trail/ springwood ridge is ok, probably the best of them!
Please stay out of blue gum swamp and the nursery/halcyon single track, both areas have been smashed by mtb'ers and motos, they have had drainage work done but still need time to recover!

Went out yesterday and cleared a lot of ferns down at the grotto run, also smoothed out jumps and hip section, have started work on the berm at beginning of grotto run, one more day of work will see it back in prime condition, as for the nursery run at halcyon, i have nearly finished the work there, a lot of damage has been done by motos, quads and also mtb'ers who insist on riding this place when sopping wet, i have finished a berm at the beginning of nursery run, i have re-routed a section that drops into the tree root for those that know it, it could NOT be recovered from the beating it has taken from moto quad and also mtb's, i have taken the track above the tree to make it long lasting, the root itself is now blocked off, the other effect this has is there is no way a quad bike can get through it, the rest of it is riding ok.
Blue gum swamp is a different matter, i went down yesterday, after hearing reports of small boggy hole i decided to look myself and get a photo, small boggy hole has not had rain on it for 3 weeks, and it is still 25 metres long, i will post photo, it is 3 ft deep in places, after speaking to a couple of people from npws we know it will be graded sometime, but we may go down there and try and alleviate the 3 boggy/water areas so they can at least be ridden until such time its graded, so if a couple of blokes can reply from bmorc we can maybe spend half a day down there to help alleviate the problem.

Despite the good weather today we are taking the advice to postpone this ride for a later date.

A few good men will be coming down from the Mountains for a social ride.

2 rides planned.

The first will be the Kessel Run (Camden) at 8am meet. This is an out and back ride (12.6km total). Estimated duration is around 2hrs.

Second is Mount Annan, Gates open at 10am. Meet in the Car park near trailhead ideally around 10:15am. May be later depending on Kessel Run duration and relocation.
