Thorndon very slippery now snow has melted, shallow wet mud and surface water has made if pretty dodgy in places. even though it dosent really look that bad you so find it is.....

Bomb hole is pretty decent though but the down hill section off it was scary lol

Hockley Woods bit sloppy in places and hard going. We still managed our usual route though and put 16 miles behind us :)

Eppings a bit muddy, cloggy muddy in places; dips, by water, bottom of hill. Yesterdays rain left it a bit greasy on the surface.
starting to dry in some places.

Danburys drying up nicely, no slop at all! Bike didn't need a wash after today. Soil feels a bit tacky still but running a lot faster now.

Thorndon nice and dry now, Harts and Donkey woods good and fast but odd patches of deep slop...

Indeed... We did Belfairs - Pound Wood - Tile Wood - West Wood, over to Coombe Wood - Shipwright's Wood, over into Hadleigh Park - Hadleigh Castle and back along the seafront :)

Weather was spot on, trails were drying up nicely, just a couple of muddy bits near the end.

Broxbourne Woods were a big improvement over the last couple of months even this morning, but this rain isn't going to help it and it'll probably be impossible slop again by the end of the day.
