you keen mate riding in there at nite, i only do it in summer when the tracks are dry, was in there this arvo, very glad i put the fender on the front all the tracks are slushy and the roots are deadly there so greasy, was awsome fun tho, was so wet could have used dry tyres haha
new track is open straight across the road from speedy cres, when u get to the bottom hang a rigtht then keep going straight till you hit main walking track then pedal for 10-20 meters jump the log on your left and ride to the bottom, turn left to go back up or left to do down.
