Thorndon wasn't alot of fun today, very thick gloopy sections, you just loose all momentum no matter how fast you hit it.

I'll be sticking to the fire roads from now on I reckon.

Did the ride through Broxbourne South Woods today and Its the first time this year I had to get the pressure washer AND muc-off out to clean the bike today. Mud and puddles were so deep that my entire chainset was in there at one point.

Out in Epping yesterday and have to be honest .... It wasn't actually that bad. Lots of leaf cover hiding some of the gloop, but my bike wasn't as dirty as last week doing the Evans Ride. All of the bits we did were rideable.

Aston hill Surface to air, running quite well but a bit muddy in the dips which saps a bit of speed for the step ups.
