U wouldn't go far wrong by joining a nirvana cycles Westcott ride.. They head off Saturdays at 10 I think and 11 on Sundays.. They'll show you all the good stuff..

Happy to show you round when its dry, but from turner5's description and what ive read elsewhere its not worth the petrol money at the mo.
Im cheaper than 30 sheets too ;) :)

swinleys a mess and some people are suggesting leave it alone til its converted into a trail centre as a lot of the trails in the middle of the foreest are closed and so the rest are getting hammered.

Llandegla is running really well a few puddles although the b-line is currently shut because of fallen trees.
South Epping, wet and wet mud, very little claggy mud but slow going with no flow.

Arent the nirvana rides really quick though and they leave you behind if you drop off the back, so might not be ideal for someone who doesnt know the area.

Danbury XC. Not to bad muddy but not sticky mud like Thorndon running water in places good to watch and see who picks best line.
