Its a stretch of road/area around the town of Hay in NSW. Flattest land in Southern Hemisphere with only 17mtrs of rise across its vast expanse. Pretty much got to cross it to perform a coast to coast in an East-West direction and is currently under flood.I feel dumb for asking, but where is the "hay plain"? I've not heard that particular name before.

All good... I have amended that location 'tag' in my profile to show that it's not Washington State (how the hell do you get WA from Washington State? - just kiddingI see that now. I looked at Dicky Knee's location and it said "Perth WA", so my mind defaulted to Washington state (U.S.) rather than Western Australia. I should have looked at the forum path and seen "IBA Australia".
I learned something new today. Sorry for the confusion.
good....pleased that our riding friends from across the oceans can see what we Aussies are dealing with at the moment.
sorry mate...no idea. Grabbed that off a local (to Hay Plain) ABC Facebook site.Wow, That's amazing! To think, it wasn't so long ago that the place was a dust bowl with not a blade of grass! Droughts and flooding rains indeed.
Any idea which section that is, Steve?
