Went out for my first ride in a while, expecting it to be a bogfest (albeit I did pick one of the drier routes) and was pleasantly surprised.

After tonights rain, it may not look quite the same tomorrow - not all the White Peak becomes unrideable in winter though...

Belper area was similar last night. A bizarre mix of stuff that was as dry as summer and sticky stuff that stopped you dead. Even came back with dry feet.

Twas indeed the stile by the tower on Stanton Moor *edit (actually the next stile on towards the old hippie site) - even managed to stay reasonably clean up and down Clough Lane

I'm sure it'll be fine, unless Rob#1's schizophrenia kicks in, then I'm not sure how the three of you will get along ๐Ÿ˜•

Might be worth letting that keeper of the peak know on twitter so people can plan their rides this weekend.
