Vague plan

Fri- drive up after uni/work and set up camp

Sat- early breakfast and get out for a ride! Starting at the pump track/skills course in town - theres something for everyone! Then do some of the XC trails (various abilities).  Sat arvo - more riding / and/or a few hours help around the property, finish off with a swim in river if its warm enough. Sat night (fire restrictions pending) - sit around camp fire with some good food. 
Sun - Some more riding and then head home after lunch. if people are keen for some harder runs some of the shuttle tracks might be open by then (we have trailer so bulk transport of bikes is easy).
