Mountain Bikes in the TWWHA

Postby stepbystep » Tue 16 Oct, 2018 11:49 am

My partner just did an overnighter to Lion Rock(South Coast Track) she had 2 European mountain bikers tear past her while on the track. They had done significant damage to the muddier section of the track. I'm in the process of trying to report it to PWS but I can't get anyone on the phone :roll:
Anyone else seen these clowns in the TWWHA?

Not in the TWWHA, but I've come across dirt bikes while running trails on kunanyi.

Thanks Phil. Done, he was very helpful. He's still chasing the loony fella who was lighting fires and leaving his rubbish everywhere :evil:

Just look for a bright pink hat.... 50kg of gear with more to pick up at Melaleuca. Then a hop along the Arthurs and wade the huon river back to huonville was his plan..... follow the smell and you should find him.
Nothing to see here.
