TECT Park

Motorbike track update
With a week's dry weather forecast (wasn't last week shocking?) we'd hoped that the public tracks would be hard enough to reopen next weekend. Unfortunately, despite passing three closure notices and having to rip the gates off their hinges, people have used the kid's track today and made quite a mess.
It will take a while to get back to fix it up, so the trail network will remain closed at least for another 2-3 weeks.
Sorry everyone. 😕

Good morning (?)
We've been reviewing some of the damage still remaining in the Park after January's weather event. Unfortunately there a couple of areas that we feel are still active, so we'll be doing some earthworks to stabilise them over the next couple of weeks.
Julian will be working on the track through the gorge to the north-west corner of the Park (from the MTB car park to the north-west trailhead) for the next two weeks, reprofiling the banks above the track. This means that the track (and as a result the horse & MTB trails on that side of the Park) will be closed on weekdays until at least next Friday 26th June.

A sunny, action filled day is set for Sunday's regional BOP Paintball Club's Triples battle at TECT Park tomorrow 🏆 Spectators are welcome!

Just a reminder that the public motorcycle trails will be closed for maintenance next Monday for up to three months.

Heads Up!
Weather gods and Julian permitting, we will be closing the public motorcycle trails on or about 18th May for maintenance.
This closure will remain in place for 6-8 weeks depending on ground conditions.

Someone left their water buckets at the Equestrian Hub. They are at the Ranger Station if you want them.

Credit to the hard-working Rangers. Weld Road is now open again and access to TECT Park has been restored.
Thank you Daryll and Emily!
