Hello,
Seems like only last year we had fires up here, the last one was a long way away, the latest one going through Moyston down to Maroona got very close to "worrying" I had to leave work early as our town was put in warning, riding home I could see the front, it moved 10kms in 4 minutes! Got home, loaded the bikes on the trailer, got the valuables in one spot and waited.
Thankfully the wind did not change and the cool change came along and saved the day! Ironically when the change came through town a couple of buildings lost tin, and trees came down, and branches flying across the road.
Hope everyone has their bush fire plans in place, and a summer safe from fire to all.
Cheers, Gareth

Hopefully conditions will improve, good luck to everybody down that way.
