It is surprising how quick the surface dries (given some sunshine and warmth), but at the moment, it'll be a little muddy and wet. The chalk will be slippy. I was on the Downs and a little of the red trail last Friday and finding grip was a struggle. I've since changed my tyres over to winters.

huge amount of rain last night and sunny with midges out today, def. winter tyres (yes that's a crossmark Jamie ๐Ÿ˜€ )

We widened the entry and the 'steps' so hopefully it'll make it better. I certainly agree it was a bit narrow.

Looking really good. Like the timber to stop it disappearing down the hill too. Will take the wife up tomorrow and report the findings!

I didn't have an issue with the steps thought they were a great feature!

Only place I thought was a bit dodgy and nearly crashed every time I think is the first left hander berm on the new descent, after being able to take the first two berms flat out on the roots bit of the old descent it is a bit of a surprise as it so tight. Nearly high sided last time which would have been a world of pain.

They're still the same really just wider. The best line is the same, we just hope it will give people more confidence to try them.

You mean the first berm in the series before these steps?

first berm (short concave one) before biggie you can pull some massive Gs and get horizontal. if any of those is wrong, i'd say it's the 2nd in the 3, the right hander, never felt flowy, it's too high up the hill or something? anyway gotta go back to the park now ๐Ÿ™‚
