We were there just after some heavy rains and the river was quite wide and deep, difficult to get the bikes through. We decided to dismount and carry the bikes over the footbridge. This would have been easy if there was not a metal post at the eastern end making it difficult, especially as one of the bikes was a very heavy electric machine.
