Awesome work fellas.

[Daniel Rubach]

No worries. Thanks Dave.

[Daniel Rubach]

Looks good Dave. Would it be possible to get the individual lap times posted also, whether it be for this race or future races?

Thanks Dan Rubach.

Nice work Longo. Good luck. I hope you get a good response.

Me n Jeff will cut the fireoad section heading from the hammerhead/longway intersection over toward the jcu hub this weekend. There is also a little bit of trail work we want to do there. We’ll use our own cutters so dont put us on your blitz roster.

I’ve got one of the club cutters. Please let me know where you want this put so it can be used by your volunteers.

I’ll focus on trying to get some course marking signs put up this weekend also.

Thanks.

Dan Rubach.

Jeff rubach finished cutting keelback this evening.

Hey Nathan,

Please see my comments i’ve added below regarding cutters and trails.

Id ignore any trail maps you see from mtba as these are not correct and are just something i believe they scrapped together for advertising. Id go more off the one i sent you for now. We’ll talk more about this this evening.

Thanks for all your help.

Cheers Dan.

so as best i can tell location of 4 cutters is as follows.

1 x at keelback at end of line? I have this one now at home mate. I ran out of chord. Can drop it wherever you like.

1 x Easy Street’ sign at the Fly Over Bridge. Not sure about this one.

1 x just off hammer head lower at that rocky outcrop (big rock on uphillside, 6′ chonky on down hillside).gear in grass 15m on downhill side. Yes last i saw there was still one set there.

1 x at the end of line near top of frog unknown if its fuel can made it up from behind bus stop. Not sure about this one.

trails left to cut for xcm

Backside from easy st to hammerhead straight needs doing last i saw.
rest keelback lower. Requires finishing off

frog top. I believe so

fruit loop? Yes. Part heading south from carpark toward extradash entry. And part heading north that joins onto the start of easy st.

Boulderdash? This looks like its already been done as well as the extradash section.

spiderbait? This needs doing. Just the part as you go over summit onto hammerhead. Veer onto spiderbait clockwise around to the top of frog. Not any of spiderbait that goes out towards borderline/taipan etc.

hammerhead down to wedgie some of. Just the hammerhead straight between end of backside and longway intersection. Also the fireroad that runs down from the longway/hammerhead intersection that runs between longway/hammerhead towards the walking trail coming from jcu hub. ( I will try and get this done)

long way from beefwood to hammer head. Need longway from beefwood to summit done.

Beefwood. Needs doing.

all trails need raking perhaps? I wouldnt say all mate. Just a few with a loose rocks on them. Grass cutting would take priority.

Also the little section past water tank after bitumen road climb leading to top of 21 jujmp st. ( I will try and get this done)
And the little section starting at end redtail/easy st junction that goes through the little creeks to the start of the fruit loop section to the finish. ( I will try and get this done)
We would also perhaps like to get a couple tempory corners cut in to make the track ride better as below. Ill talk to you about these tonight.
1. At the top of the fireroad climb after upper bluering to turn back down the longway towards start of whiptail.
2. Couple of corners to join hammerhead into end wedgetail.
3.End of 21 jump st to veer left onto easy st.
4.Corner leading onto the last fruit loop section for the finish.

Ive cut that big chonky tree back at the entrance to whiptail from windarra carpark drink stop. Cut the little creek trail before concrete path after keelback. Got a fair bit of keelback done but still more to do.

[Daniel Rubach]

Trails cut this afternoon. All of upper bluering. Longway from beefwood intersection down to whiptail. Whiptail from tank end down to keelback intersection. Some of hammerhead down from the longway intersection. Thanks to jeff rubach and aiden geaney for the help. 1 wipper snipper still at spot left by dan cotter just off hammerhead. The other wipper snipper i grabbed from there is now near the whiptail entrance from tank end. I’ll hopefully be doing some more tomorrow arve if anyone else is keen.
