There was frost on top of Wrynose pass this weekend! Although the road looked more like a river.

If the stupid muppets (on foot, horse or 2 wheels) could stop stirring up the gloopy mire now when no sane person could get a morsel of pleasure around these parts then when it hardens up in the impending cold snap it might actually be ridable rather than a rutted pot marked mess.

Totally agree Covert. There are some tracks round North Leeds which get a lot of horse/bike/walker action and even a few weeks ago I felt like I was destroying it for future generations never mind on top of the recent rain.

I know its logical not to aim for the mud but a bug bear of mine is when things are getting rutted and people ride further and further out to the edge making the whole thing twice as bad; if your lucky enough to have nice, natural trails and singletrack nearby at least look after them, preaching over.

Not sure what's worse- gloopy trails, or gloopy trails covered with a thin sheet of ice. ๐Ÿ˜•

Maybe a week of -5ish temps would sort soggy trails out.

Bring it on!!
