      		 Wet and muddy in places, needs a trim, gum trees at the southern end dropping sticks all over the show too

      		 Since reporting all the overgrown stuff to the council it's all been cleared, the power of reports. The trail was wet in places but fully rideable...

      		 Pretty overgrown on the edges, not actually that safe really.
