Yep. Dust. Full fat dust. My fork crown had a good layer on it when I got back from my off road commute.

Beautiful dusty dust. Welcome back my old particulate based friend. I've missed you.

Yeah. We're even getting hints of it round here now. But only the bits that aren't still under massive piles of snow or swamped by melt water. You're pottering along thinking "this is nice" and then you hit a massive icy puddle or a patch of repeatedly refrozen slush and you're sliding all over the shop. It's really odd...

1st ride to work in BST and it was snowing on the South Downs this morning! I'm still wearing all my winter kit.Still the mud has either dried or frozen which is nice.

Yup I was happy to see dust coming off my mates rear tyre last night. It's been over a year since dusty trails existed round these northern parts!

happy to report solid dry trails on tonight's ride in Clumber Park, North Notts too, even some of the long-standing 'winter' puddles have dried up.

Saw some wide open pine cones which seem to have dropped from the trees.
