Afternoon,
Just sorting some festive trail trips out and was wondering what conditions are like at QECP at the mo, worth a trip??
Cheers
Adam
Its typical QECP Winter conditions, apart from the surfaced bits of the new blue trail.
So yes worth a trip but there will be mud and it will be slippy 😉
Cheers Scott. I've not been for ages and looking forward to it.
Here are some pics of the new blue trail too:

That doesn't look anything like what I rode yesterday thinking I was on the new blue. What I did find was superb for keeping the wheels turning, there is a sign that's a touch confusing though, as in it points in both direct when exiting onto a path.
Conditions were ok actually, slippy in places but the hardened stuff was ace and the red descents were fairly grippy.

Red or blue, if blue we are still waiting for them to sign post the new blue bits. I hope to see the blue trail signs put up in my lifetime.
it was a blue and i remembered a mention from you of waiting for signage, this was just plain confusing so i did like anyone would and headed the way of least resistance.
😀
NO NO NO if there is an option its always UP!!!! Stupid hills!!
