    If anyone is thinking about the North Side of the Waimak the Eyre Ford is washed out again.

    It didn't look like you could ride through, so I ended doing the same going to the Diversion Road.

    Saturday 25th August

    Well the weekend is over and I never made it out to play but J is on a course this coming Saturday so I'm good to go then....

    Anyone up for a ride?
    How's a 10am meeting sound?
    Where to? Don't make me have to make all the decisions.

    EDIT:I hear Lees Valley is fine at the moment.

    Yup that's the one, a nice loop indeed, can add in a trip up/down the side of the waimak too. anyone know the water levels at this time of year?

    Water levels have been going up and down like a yo yo with the rain but R was through there on Sunday and tells me it's fine so long as you have a look and choose a good line (though it's currently listing between 6 and 7 cubic meters per second on ECAN website).
    Always good to have a mate there to help if needed when it's like that though.
