    Well if that is the case then why'd they leave a 640 sized gap beside the chain?

    But it's gravel all the way from the road. Are you saying they left the bikes up on the seal and walked?

    nah... just rode very slowly

    unlike me, leaving a trail of disturbed gravel in my wake... just as well they were slow or they'd have been dodging it :P

    If the gates not open, just open it. (make sure you close it behind you of course) It's never locked.

    The one at the bottom, that goes up to the weather station caretakers? or the one at the top by the road?

    oh, and good luck ;P

    The one by the road. Everyone knows you're not allowed vehicles past the carpark

    I took a BFTP group out there a couple or 3 months back, the classic guys don't seem to have a problem with gravel

    Thanks.
