Yes from me
Following a lot of felling it will be worth knowing if enough trails are open.
The main cycle trail from the Stone car park to the mid gate by Robbers Rd cannot be ridden due to felling and maintenance but everything else is ok.
Planning to be there. Hopefully Steve can get me there. 🙂
Yes from me!

I think I’ll be there. Green or very slow blue for me though since I’m still a bit fragile!
Yes from me, Green as always
Yes from me!
