Thinking of heading up to Cwm Carn for the Wednesday night ride but heard conditions were not good as of Saturday. A mate says there was lots of ice still down and a slush making it heavy going. Has it got better since then ? If not its a thrash round the local woods.

Not a great update from what you already know but a couple of mates were there on Sunday and said basically it was largely a push up and a treachorous ride / push down.

Was planning on going tomorrow but I guess things will not have improved greatly.

Would be happy for someone to tell me I'm wrong ๐Ÿ™‚

rode around there this morning no problem but i did avoid the track that runs along side the stream as those roots are slippery in this weather and climbed up on the road.
