Thanks for the comments
I forgot about the last part of this ride report, guess I better finish it before adding the next one:
Part K, 8 min video, from the end of the SawBack track through Adamsfield to Clark hut:
After this ride I removed the wheels and suspension linkages to check for water and repack them with grease, and I gave it an oil change... Surprisingly no water got in anywhere

...
This track turned into a bit of a nightmare ride, it was more effort than I enjoy, but I have no regrets, I learned a lot

...
Would I do it again?, yes, but at a drier time of the year

(the clay was just evil)
