Bikers visit.

Had a call last night from a local called Damien. He had recently visited the waterfalls with his wife Justine and three little boys, together withTom and Sarah Wallis and theirk children. He was organising a bike ride for with some friends for tomorrow, Saturday, morning and asked if it would be OK to ride into the falls. I said that it would be fine.
To reach the falls, the creek has to be crossed four times. He asked how deep the water is. I told him that there's a good flow at the moment but it's not too deep. I also pointed out that, if the rain forecast for overnight was significant, then the crossings will be a lot deeper.
Well, Murphy got to work and I measured 38mm (1 1/2 inches) this morning. I really didn't think they would come, but they did.
It was wet all day and I hadn't finished the tree guards. This afternoon, between thunderstorms, I ran out - would you believe walked quickly? - OK, what about walked as quickly as I could? - and erected the remaining three tree guards.Read more
