Loads of snow here, will probably stay til late April.... 😉
Yep, we've got dust here on the Q's.

gone from hub deep slop to dry on bits of the chase. Hanchurch looks like the Somme thanks to the FC harvesting every tree and twig in the place and the fact that it stays damper than an otters pocket at the best of times.
Was up Simonside in Northumberland today, still six inches of snow in places. Gilfriend wasn't impressed with the route.
As of Sunday pm absolutely dry as a bone across much of the Malverns...fast as @@@@!! 😀
Afan was dry, lower down but the higher up and close to the falling water was a little damp, but great conditions! loads of grip.
Don't worry guys, I'm taking the Trailrakers off later this week in preparation for a BHF charity ride at the weekend - pretty much gurantees a return to wet and gloopy conditions 😥
mine were dry!

Plenty of snow but glorious sunshine today up in Nidderdale on the Scar house route.

Wet enough to be slippy and claggy enough to clog every tire going on Sundays ride. Found a tiny little bit of pine forest (not really big enough to be woods but sounds wrong) that was dusty until the crunchy frosty bit.
kirroughtree and ae were both totally ok to ride last weekend. ae dosent drain as well but apart from the gloopy bits all good. i forgot how long kirroughtree is.....[img]

I was up innerleithen this afternoon, Caddon Bank dusty in bits, anywhere above that still has ice and snow!
Gave up on XC trail before the quarry because of snow, went along to make or break, 4" heavy wet snow on top road, ice all over the top of make or break. No snow lower down.
Filthy and cut up by horses!
Sunny, drying out and still cold

yesterday, cotswolds.
icicles and wild garlic shoots. whats been and what promises.
I can confirm that the Quantocks, (as sharki says), was dusty at four thirty this afternoon.
I wish I ****ing knew... but due to a very self indulgent teething baby I haven't a clue.. He needs to BTFU.. but I will find out tomorrow by hook or by crook..
yup i have one of those baby things. really bugger up your life dont they.
Mostly Dry. Except for the wet bits.
Did 5 rides and from Wednesday to Sunday all dry trails round here are ace at the moment.
See for yourself

It's a changeable picture (wet bits / dry bits) but improving in Leeds
yesterday was dry as a bone on the surrey hills. well, a few small patchs of slight muddiness, but compared to the last few weeks, it was arid.
Blairadam in Fife still had some snow, but it was dry under the trees. Great when out of the wind, you could feel the warmth of the sun and spring just around the corner.
Bone dry in the Malverns tonight - really loose in places and very, very fast 🙂
Afan - the wall was dry and fast.
but it did rain with hailstones so sticky in places but would've dried today - nice and mint - just wish I could go back for more damn kids parties 😥
Charity lane in the White Peak still snow covered...
Drumlanrig dusty dry and fastest and funnest I can remember... Spent a couple of hours hooting like a loon this evening.
4 month of no Riding and three months and counting of snow om the trails. Time not wasted though, been to the park everynight and can Moe do an ok proper manual.i am sure we are entering à new ice age though.
It's fairly mixed in the Pentlands. Still some snow about but not really on the trails any more. Some muddy parts, and plenty of the softer bits that should still be avoided, but quite dry on most of the trails I was on today.
