Perfect is the answer, unless it's lashed down since Saturday. Dry dusty trails and absolutely sweet.

I wouldn't say dusty, but it's all good atm.

Which is exactly what it did yesterday…

Cold & dry today, I haven’t been out other than walking the dog & the puddles are back, but it didn’t rain enough to soften it up again.

Last weekend however, was probably as good as it gets in the FoD.

It was. We were over on the Doward/Staunton side. Unbelievably good - not often we get onto the steeper trails in March. Checked my Strava for this time last year. Absolutely slop fest!

We had no real rain yesterday just North of Ross. The trails above there were in amazing condition last week and I expect they would be tomorrow. Shame I'm in Manchester 😉

OP- I expect you'll have a great day.
