    Very tempting.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    I was in there in jan ,track changed again after rain bomb and just as you head out of river into trees starting to get undercut a bit along the bank as you start up the hill. I put my foot down going across where the undercut was it as was fairly close to the edge . be interesting to see if any later rain has made it worse... hopefully somebody might have widened the track on the inside toward the forest so making it wider there. I reported to the directors with a photo.

    There has been some track work done recently and there is a working bee scheduled to tackle that spot and a few others apparently.

    Righto.
    Booking has been confirmed.
    I think the easiest thing to do is meet in Maruia on the Friday morning and then sort vehicles, seats, passengers etc. And head on in.
    If people want to come in on the Saturday I can come back out to the road and meet them if need be.

    I'm looking forward to this trip.
