As per the title, has anyone ever ridden at Pippingford Park in East Sussex?
Round 3 of Southern Enduro is there this weekend. I can't find much info about the venue and I was curious about the terrain/soil/features.

SSUK was there. 2011.
I ran a full on XC semi slick on the rear. that was a really bad idea. it's pretty average southern clay/ chalky type soil. i spun, a few times.

Buff, fast n'rooty in the dry. Muddy, but not super claggy in the wet. Bring a selection of tyres.

There is no chalk at Pippingford.chalky type soil
Its sandy/sandstone near top of the hill and more clay down by the lakes.
Its a bit like PORC as far as soil type but a bigger, longer hill.
