I’m having a week with White Room from September 10th, has anyone experienced the weather at this time of year down there? I’m conflicted about what clothing to take…do i take summer kit, winter kit, or a bit of all sorts? Baggage space is limited so i cant take every bit of clothing i have, so what are peoples experiences of the weather mid September?

We were there late September 2019 and were lucky as it was dry throughout. Tended to ride in normal kit but with a base layer on underneath. Obvs if it is wet you’ll need a proper waterproof and it’ll be a faff cleaning up.
You’ll have an ace time, trails were sweet and the food was spot on.

We were there with White Room same time as you but a few years back. Looking at the (rubbish) video we created it was mostly normal summer riding gear but had a thin jacket on for a few of the rides. It was ace.

Could be anything from warm and pleasant to single digits (especially up high) so take a few layers

A bit of everything. Mornings can be frosty. Altitude can be windy. In between you'll have roasting sun on your back whenever you are climbing.
