    Rideadv.com.au 4.40 am update. We had a very successful day yesterday with everyone arriving safely after enjoying a great days riding with awesome views and trails.
    With a cold snap entering most of Vic and NSW we have been concerned about snow today. Live weather updates have become the new addiction. In about an hour Lefty and I are going to head up to Mt. Hotham and suss the situation out. Check the 4 am updates and watch this space!

    Had to shut two stages this morning unfortunately due to snow and slippery conditions

    Sweeps are out already shutting tracks, it is bloody cold

    Lefty and I rode out at 6am and it was tough

    Looks like fun but it isn’t real fast

    BRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :S Looks inviting (if your a Polar Bear) :laugh:

    Good work boys on the early scouting run while the others were no doubt sipping on a hot latte back at the digs.
    Pity the poor buggers that were camping out :blink:

    Enjoy the remainder and stay safe peeps

    I had TB, Lefty and YZ80 on the tracker, just TB`s not showing today.
    I can help you set it up if you still need to mate. Can go over it on the phone if you want.

    I`ll still check in on the page periodically over the weekend anyway, out of interest to see how they`re going ;)

    Cheers

    Day 2 complete. We rode through snow and rain but everyone has arrived safe.

    Only issues for the day were Fuchsy’s flat tyre before he even got off the tar, Mooses bike stopped so he jumped on the pre run bike and Leo went bush but luckily no injuries. Other than that we had a section cancelled due to conditions and a couple people charged off down a wrong track following bike tracks instead of the GPS tracks.
