Yep what willsy said, it's to stop the locals getting annoyed, was one of the stipulations for approval. There are a few on the climb out who would cop lights in the windows. Plus noise at night would be a lot more noticeable. That said I hope one day it does become a reality, even just for special events or something.

man the trail is riding so sweet right now! the changes made at the work day are fantastic and gives the southside a much similar feeling to the lower blue sections with better flow and more grin factor. the surface is super tacky too after the recent rain and the damage done by the clowns who rode during the closure was not too drastic. Myself, Doctrdan and his mate Dave rode until just before dark and the trail was still navigable even with my dark glasses at 5:45pm. There was a cop car doing the rounds too, but not sure what that was about.
Boon Squad was there too fanging around, wish i had a 1/4 of the skill!

Are you local poita? It depends on the volume of rain. the other day it rained a little bit and wasn't closed, so someone would have assessed it and not changed the status. At the moment the radar shows rain south of pennant hills and north of hawksbury so not sure if omv will be hit at all. Just check the twitter feed in the morning.
Not local, came down from newy for other stuff and was hoping to squeeze a ride in! Gotta catch the train up there and didn't want to go in vain.
Will check the website in the morning and hope!

Ignorance can justify stupidity for some people! If someone can't decide for themselves if a trail is too wet to sustain riding, I dread to think of the other 'important' decisions in life they get wrong! Idiots!
This was the sign that means the southern side is open even though the north side is closed.
I don't know seems to still read closed to me.
There was a couple that I saw and they weren't kids, mid to late 30s, shaved head, accent of some sort driving one if those proton jumbuck utes.
You're a real legend mate and showing a great example for the younger guy with you.

I honestly think 'Naming & Shaming' is the best deterrent
A photo of their car/no.plate and preferably their face & bike posted on a "Name and Shame" board next to the trail head sign would be AWESOME !!!!
