Having not ridden in almost 2.5 months, I cruise (well pant, heave and vomit) my way up to Bobsled to find it closed. Fair enough, probably needs work with all the frost heave and rain, and convince the others to honour the closure. So we roll back down to Floppy Bunny but man on man I wish we had not. Bottom half of the trail was so soft and chewed up we decided to walk much of it.
Any idea how long Bobsled will be closed? Looking at Mark and Matts proposed work plan, it could be for quite some time.

The closure will probably result in a lot more traffic going down Floppy and bugger up all the recent hard work that Pat et. al. have put in.
Just wondering if the old line should be reinstated during the winter to help protect the gold line (spread the load and it was down to hard pan already, most places) and/or put some signage up requesting riders to kindly consider riding other move winter proof trails, with useful suggestions?
Please let me demonstrate the ride around; really it's no trouble.
