Not long after I came down the Rumatakas two Ambulances and a police 4x4 went past.

It had just been raining too. :mellow:

No problems with the group I was with but we were home by 4.30. There had been an accident earlier this morning - I heard a 4x4 went through the fence on the Featherstone side of the hill and went quite a way down.

Traffic was slow on the way back at about 7pm and I got a good look at the site on the way through. It looks like they clipped the bank on the wrong side of the road, bounced back and went through the fence. (Just read the article and saw that they did.)

If you were on a bike and went off there you'd fly out into space and fall a couple of hundred metres without touching the sides. They would have taken out anything coming the other way. It's been a long time since anyone went off, but golly that's a scary thought.
