I rode from Vaughan Springs to The Chocolate Mill past Mt Franklin on April 28 after Melb had over 80mm rain the Tuesday before and Lysterfield and the Youies were closed. We saw a few trees down over the track and the bushes were creeping onto the track. I only saw 1 puddle and my legs were dirty from the dust, not mud.
I also redid the ride on 2nd June ie last sat, after the rain we had last weekend and had to avoid 2 puddles in the 22km each way trip I did. The fallen trees were removed and a complete section of single track was cleared back. The dust had settled and we had a blast. The puddles were on the fire roads and easily avoided.
The 17 other riders with me loved riding in dry conditions and the variety of terrain was amazing.
THANKS TO THE TRAIL VOLUNTEERS/WORKERS FOR THEIR EFFORTS.
