Club Laverda NSW last brekky run for the year

One very windy day I was heading down that hill, it just past The Pie In the Sky and rounding one of the blind 35kph left-handers there was a tree down across 90% of the road. It wasn't hard to slow and cross where it wasn't on the road so I did. And then I thought someone might come down that hill way harder than me so I went back up the hill a bit and flagged down the next few riders. After there was a small crown some bright spark suggested pushing it off the road, so they tried, I didn't waste my time. It had come down wedged between a few other trees and it was obvious it was chain saw time to me. So I went off up to Gosford end and in the 40 minutes it took to get back the Fireys were at it with said chain saw. So doesn't matter wind or not blind bends need care and a peak around in tree rich spots. Same happened on a Snowy Run once but we cleared that tree off the road, allowing the trailer car to go, and then struggling to pass it for the next 50ks. Won't name that driver but he wasn't popular after that move. I don't remember what road that was, I think that 107ks of 35kph bends in Victoria but I could be wrong.
