As the race is postponed....

Thought I might take in a loop out of edale. Is there snow on the trials at the min?
How conducive is it to riding bikes over mam tor, kinder etc?

WET!

It snowed last night, but was vanishing fast by this morning.

Rocky stuff is fine. Everything else is a bit of a mess.

We stuck a free [url= http://v-publishing.co.uk/blog/v-publishing-blog/2014-01-20---free-download-kinder-all-weather-circuit.html ]map and directions to the Jacob's loop up here[/url] last week in an effort to let the muddy stuff recover! It's pretty robust if you skip Rushup Edge.

Mam Tor area is pretty trashed along Rushup Edge and up and down the sides towards Edale. Jacob's or Ladybower area is a better bet.

That's the route I was thinking of, just a bit worried about ice. It looks like it might freeze tonight :/

It'll be better if it freezes, really...
