    Hi,

    Done MBR killer, but was hoping for a little more 'fun' and not so much uphill?

    Any suggestions? I take it is wet but not too muddy at present, unlike hampshire, which is a claggy mess 😥

    There's likely to be as much uphill as there is downhill on any route.

    It's pretty wet up there except along the main ridge. Somerton's a muddy trench.

    I was up there Thursday night. As Johnners says, apart from the main ridge its a complete mess at the moment. Don't think I've ever seen it so wet. Really hard going down in the combes. Also some trees down on Sharkies trail below Triscombe. Ruined one of the best bits of singletrack there is. I'm going to Cwmcarn instead tomorrow. Best to leave it till it dries out a little otherwise it will be completely wrecked.

    That's a shame, it's nicely put together. It's also a bit of trail that benefits from a bit of consideration when it's been wet, which unfortunately some riders don't show.
