Thorndon today was super claggy in parts. Doing the circuit past Thorndon Hall - the section between Old Hall Pond & the exit on to Brentwood Rd is hard work. The clay just builds up, stops the wheels turning. Best avoided. Plenty of 'normal' mud though & there's always the fireroads!

Epping was wet yesterday, wet trails, wet paths, wet leaves, wet mud, any downhills sections were streams, streams were overflowing, bridges over the streams were underwater making them fjords. great fun though :)

Porc was a mud slide yesterday and I'd say it's not worth riding there for a while

Did a ride at Cannock yesterday - good conditions fast and very little gloopy mud - worth the 2h drive if local conditions are getting you down

Broxbourne was a little drier today, although it was still quite sloppy in places.
