will be a bit gloopy in places as we've had a load of rain today, maybe bit of snow on exposed bits but as long as you don't mind the mud you'll be fine fella, just get stuck in ๐Ÿ˜‰

All the forecast snow hasn't come to much, I live over the hill from Afan, mountains dusted for sure

Afan was fine Monday, wall had a bit of mud but loads of grip. Seems to be a lot more braking bumps that I remember tho! Penhydd was muddy in places but again grippy and riding well.

Tuesday was pretty epic ๐Ÿ˜‰ Snow, Rain, Wind, Sleet all at the same time it seemed. Whytes was getting horrid at the top but still great from npower on. Lots of big puddles but armoured trails so they're going to be fine.

Been raining every since in Wales, so it's going to be moist I'd expect ๐Ÿ™‚

Apparently the trails at Brechfa are a bit tired as theres been FC work going on recently and the trails have been closed (FC website says its open now though...). My lack of skills showing but Gorlech would be pretty slippy I'd imagine.
