After the pouring rain stopped at last this morning, ended up going to Llandegla with Sikora (thanks again for the lift up mate, I really appreciated it). Very warm but a bit of cloud. Got to the car park and started to rain, but only for couple of minutes thankfully. Were gonna do the Black, but thought better of it seeing as the conditions were pretty very muddy and wet, and I came off twice Click here for photos. I'm absolutely knackered now, I think I'm gonna be aching tomorrow. BTW, I've decided two things after today's ride...I defo need a hydration pack as my water bottle was caked in thick Llandegla mud and I'm defo getting flats for when on trails coz that's what made me de-bike both times, not being able to unclip on the spd's...oh, and mud guards

Car park was rammed, but probably saw about 10 people out on the trail - apart from at JJ's Jumps, where their was a queue forming, as it had been closed for private lessons.

Xyba check them crank bros 50xx pedals that merlins are doing they are a steel at that price  After yesterday, they're looking even better as an option.

If it was dry yesterday, i don't think you'd of bailed at all.
Llandegla is very rocky these days - quite alot of errosion over the last 12 months. Can be quite trecherous in the wet.
