Hi all, what's it like?

Did it escape the torrential rain we had here in Leamington on Friday night?

Thinking of heading to Stile Cop to mess about tomorrow, but I'll go out on the road instead if it's a quagmire.

Thanks.

I'm not sure about the conditions but I'll be at Stile Cop tomorrow. If it's muddy and things get a bit wild because of it, so be it. 😀

There's splashy puddles but it's grippy enough, might wanna watch out for the roots tho.

Conditions on the Monkey & Dog were good this afternoon, off piste not so good. Big diversion on the Monkey at the moment though, about 2 km's worth due to tree felling, ah but your going to Stile cop so that information is useless to you...

In fact it was better than fine, near perfect I'd say.

I was the guy mincing about on a silver Remedy.

What a great day, but that climb get's a bit wearing after about 10 runs!

Will be off to do the Dog in an hour or so - love this weather, the cobbled sections will be as slippy as hell and the approach to the werewolf drops a bit muddy - adds to the fun.
Went yesterday as well but got that pissed off with the weekenders I bailed out at the stegasauros and did the sherbrook blue route - due to a family of gawkers just bloody standing at the bottom of the small rock section you go through prior to the stega - I had to ask them to move - then ask another couple to stop walking on the stega FFS.
Did the last section of the dog after though and it was fine.
