Hi guys,

taken from rear yard in Newcastle over last week or so.

If anyone comes across one for sale or a dubious looking rider please let me know.

Not all too many of these around so ...

thanks

Glenrock & Awaba very wet!!!

please stay off these trails as they have had an insane amount of rain this week & will need heaps of sun & wind to dry,so if you are travelling up from Sydney or wherever looking for dry trails sadly these are not.

How much rain has fallen at Awaba?

Well this image says it all,

Water Damage to the Awaba DH Trail.

This is a photo taken today of sediment runoff from Mt Faulk road onto the berm below the scorpion gap at Awaba. The road was freshly graded not long ago.

the sediment in here would be up to 500mm deep in the middle of the berm.

A lot of work had been done here in the past to make sure water coming from the road above doesn;t erode the trail, but we have never had a sediment deposit situation before.

Went for a WALK through Grock today. The creeks are flowing pretty well.

Haven't ridden much in Glenrock over the last month or so and today (after seeing the photos that have been posted up) snuck off for a quick lap to see some of the new bits people have been raving about. Unbelievable the amount of work that's gone into some of the bits I haven't ridden that long ago and I'd like to add my thanks to all those that have worked so hard to get the access and then build these amazing trails.

Ok, so with the plan of management in action, a good part of my current loop has officially become unavailable and I need to branch out.

My old loop was normally
- Jumping the gun through twistys, then back up lower JTG
- Baileys across to BJ's
- Back up shit happens then down BJ's again.
- Down the easement then the firetrail to snakes and ladders.
- Up snakes and ladders then down the rutted ugly trail to the picnic table
- Fire road again, going up upper world cup if it was a short ride, continuing down across the creek otherwise
