Title: Grampions fire-air filter change imminent
Post by: mr blackstock on January 17, 2014, 12:34:20 AM
Go figure, at least for the next few days we will have ash falling everywhere.  Bad time to ride Grampions, lots of stressed Roo's running around like headless chickens.  I added an arrow for where I live.  Cannot wait for the change!

Gareth,

Stay safe.  Hope they are able to get this under control soon.
I'm about 200kms away and the cloud of smoke rolled over my place earlier today.
At least it blocked the sun for a while, and then finally the cool change came through.
Sincerely hope we don't have another 4 days of 40C+ (110F) anytime soon.

Thanks all,

I rode into work this morning around 6am, usually sun's up and fairly high visibility, but due to the smoke it was very dark, then low lying lightning, a couple of rain showers, and a nice cool breeze.

A week of 30 degrees before the Island Classic!

Cheers, Gareth
