Llandegla: trail conditions and ride report

So not worth taking bikes up at the moment, but the guys at OnePlanet have got the car park and access road clear and fired up the BBQ. I can recommend the salt’n’pepper chicken.

Someone had very thoughtfully cut tracks up the blue climb for us. I should really get a pair of cross country skis for this sort of thing, though…

The blue climb, just past the pond

Same again

A few big drifts through the trees, and there were also a few patches scoured bare by the wind

Lovely smooth tracks most of the way up

I think it’ll be a while until the grouse see daylight again

Jealous! 🙂

Some ok snowboarding from the masts to to ponderosa 8)

I think even a Fat Bike will struggle a littel up there at the moment

Cool pics 8)

I tried riding up the road up from the ford up to the boardwalk. No chance! At the old farm the snow has been ploughed into a 5ft wall, and after all the walkers footprints melting / freezing a few times its like rutted icy concrete and I couldn’t even ride 2ft in one go on it.

Turned around and did the old horseshoe pass, which was a laugh.

Really nice making the most of it. Spangly outfit too.
