Title: Keeping Cobaw Clean Post by: lukeage on October 25, 2009, 10,16:11 PM Was in Cobaw on Saturday, and am disgusted with the state of the area surrounding the Ridge Road carpark. Toilet paper everywhere. THERE ARE NO TOILETS AT COBAW. Oue bodies may well be designed to have a poo first thing in the morning, and a dump in the woods may seem like the logical option before getting on the bike. So - please be prepared - you have a few options ahead of rubbishing the area with poo stained paper. 1/ Poo at home before you come. 2/ Poo at Calder 3/ Poo your pants If you absolutely must take a dump in our state forests, please bury it (and the paper) at least 6 inches deep. This applies to everywhere - not just Cobaw. Title: Re: Keeping Cobaw Clean Post by: Eric L on October 26, 2009, 06,52:19 AM Hear Hear ,I was there as well,the DSE should
rub their noses in the mess and then sting em up and dont think it just happens there, I see it everywhere I go camping and it turns my stomach ,people are just to lazy >:( Title: Re: Keeping Cobaw Clean Post by: Mat R on October 27, 2009, 12,24:49 AM Cobaw is a low priority state forest. Toilets have been considered but present levels of attendance by DSE at Cobaw are greater than minimum required for upkeep of toilets. So it is not likely that toilets will be built there.
Options 1 and 2 are best. If you really need to go and can't dig and bury, there is a servo about 15-20 minutes away toward Kyneton. Regards Mat R.

COBAW AND MY COLON - (or "pre-ride poo" - a how to guide) Most would think developed species Would not go and dump their faeces. Yet some riders think it's fit To make others live in sh*t. Please take this poem as a guide There are options before you ride If you need to lay some cable Please do this if you are able Try to dump whilst at your house But do not leave it for your spouse They too do not appreciate A very smelly defecate Or when you do drive past Calder Please feel free to dump a boulder Maybe even steal some paper For the glovebox (to use later) If you're riding in the bush Of course you'll want to wipe your toosh But don't leave paper lying 'round Dig a hole and bury deep down If you find thats not preventive You can really get inventive For those poos that are really runny Create your own travel dunny! As you see there are some ways To ensure some poo free days There is nothing worse I guess Than ending up in someones mess Some people think this poem absurd All this rhyme about a turd It does sound strange, I must admit But not as strange as dumping sh*t So before you ride and spend a penny Just take some time to think how many Holes are now amongst the trees It makes our Cobaw like swiss cheese |
