With spring in the air, any dry trails around yet? Was at Brayton Wood nr Selby last week and couldnt believe how dry the trails were. The Peaks in places is getting better though in others its very wet and claggy...? Whats Dalby like at the mo???
just ridden most of the trans cambrian and the 95% was dry, a joy.
I would expect so, the hill has been on fire at least 3 times this week...
Almost dusty in Devon today.
The jump track in Leicester was really dry for the past 2 weeks til Friday when it lashed it down ๐ Haven't tried it since, but I think its been quite dry so hopefully it's riding fast again.
DRY! still got snow on them! haven't been on my mtb in 2 months !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Had dry trials for a few weeks now.
Dusty dry At Drumlanrig. Fast and fun fun fun!!!
Was out yesterday. Ice aplenty. Where it has melted, mud. Oh frabjous joy!
South downs = bone dry ๐ Christ - I'd forgotten what it was like!
Out round N of Watford / St Albans / Bricket wood way today. Much better than it has been but still need to be a bit selective where you go.
Anyone done Leckhampton today? Off there tomorrow am....
Racing in Plymouth today. Should be bone dry and superfast. ๐
Dry-ish in the north downs. Positively Saharan compared to two weeks ago
as bangin on says, trails in and around Dumfries all pretty dry. The odd wet`n boggy bit where the frost is still coming out if it is in a shaded area. Bit of a wind today and sun is shinin so will dry even more with temps 10+
All very dry here. It was even dusty on Thursday night!
Looking dryish on the Mendip area. Popping out for a trundle later.
Dry AND warm(ish) here in Swansea. Even the muddiest of trails have little sog on them at the moment.
Will even manage to get home from work and have a ride before it gets dark this afternoon!!
The Wyre Forest was ace yesterday and even better today!
Yup,Wyre's drying out a treat.
Lovely dry trails in Moray yesterday. Just rained now but not much. You don't have to go far to find deep snow though.
Did the singletrack around ullswater - up over place fell then down into Martindale yesterday - All bone dry
Rode local around Bingley/Oxenhope/Hebden Bridge today - not fully dried out yet but definitely much dryer than last weekend
Just done a fell race on Shatton Moor (to the south east of Hope) and it was astoundingly dry - just enough give for grip, otherwise like summer (appart from the freezing wind, but I guess that's partly what's drying the trails)
Grizedale is pretty much dry, theres a few areas in the shade that are still damp. Hasnt rained here for what seems like ages, coniston lake is pretty low (i never ride in there though)
NOPE! was out at llandegla yesterday, mud bath!
Mainly dry out Glossop/Rowarth way, but the odd bit of ice (?!) still around, ended up ditching it the other day on the other side of Lantern Pike when front wheel washed out on unexpected ice patch (quite funny though ended up holding onto the bike whilst hopping alongside it till it stopped sliding with my other foot throuh the middle of the frame!).
orange, planning to take a few first timers to Llandegla on Wednesday. was it that bad?
Did a quick 10 miler from Belper, Derbyshire just now and it was bone dry. Lovely.

Dry around Leeds, but not sure about Dably...sorry
Drunlanrig was pretty dry today, we had DUST! And sliding around on loose dirt and stones instead of on mud.
Chatsworth and Bakewell in the White Peak were fairly dry today, just one or two bits that were still wet, not muddy tho - well to be fair there was some muddy bits but they had a dry line or two through them - does that count? ๐
Yep, Mendip is reasonably dry. Spent a couple of hours fooling/trashing around Stockhill on the pixie trails - brilliant, I neither fell nor stalled due to the grip available. YES!
Kirroughtree was as dry as ive seen it in a long time today, it was like a (dry)summers day
Ae was bone dry, as was Drumlanrig afterward - even the roots were grippy!
Blairadam has been so dry I've ridden there thrice this week. I thought I'd used up all the good days so me and a mate did a road ride up around Pitlochry and it poured on us.
Was dusty at Newnham this afternoon!
Just back from riding dry and dusty singletrack until it was too dark to see ๐ Woking way...
Mendips is most certainly dry and sunny too. There is dust on my forks!
Did a couple of hours around Blackdown, Burrington Ham and Roeberrow.
What a nice welcome back after a glorious week in North Wales, it was pretty dry there too.
Dartmoor still fabulous today! ๐
Devon.
Jam bo:
Next door neighbour rolled their horse paddocks today and sent up clouds of dust behind the tractor. Thought i saw a gorse fire out Hameldon way on thursday on way home, so must be dry up there.
Managed to nip out yesterday for a quick reminder of what riding is, following string of colds. Trails really nice. Bit of give but almost dusty. Just the large puddles still visible but shrinking.
Don't worry though, I think it might be wet by the weekend.....
Q
South Downs dry today, first time for ages I haven't had to clean the bike, I couldn't believe it ๐ฏ amazing how quick it can dry up ... 'they'll' be declaring a drought soon and charging us extra for water! ๐
Surrey Hills largely ok. Even sandy in a few places.
Summer here we come. yay! ๐
