was there a week or so ago, and it was bone dry, hasn't rained really since

should be pretty good I'd have thought?

Fantastic, I was there in the rain on Saturday morning and there were hardly any puddles, all that were there will be gone by now, and nothing (NOTHING!!) is closed at the mo, careful on the new lower cliff if you're used the the old one, it's faster now and there are some big jumps to flat if you hit the lumps flat out

Edit- I'd expect any off piste trails to be fairly soggy, if they existed.

not signposted stuff is just about nice, we did lower cliff on Saturday just to see, so now thats open I think Follow Your Dad and Donkey trail are all open again.

It was riding well yesterday. Some of the natural stuff a bit sloppy in places but the Dog & Monkey were fine.

Why is Lower Cliff faster? I didn't think they had changed the actual trail?

Yeah they have a bit, it's also really smooth and there's no trees to hit any more ๐Ÿ˜†

I took it easy down there on Saturday, and I was only a couple of seconds off a strava PB. I was riding quite well though tbf
