The wind is meant to die down from Tuesday onwards, I will keep my eye on it.

Agree with the FFS but disagree with the golf - our fashion sense is worse

Well, trees were falling onto the trails as people were passing, so perhaps there was some justification behind the partial closure for a couple of hours...

It makes sense to close a forest ride if the trees are falling,what type of a nugget thinks its wrong to do just that.If somebody was seriously hurt they would have had to wait hours and hours for help as it was that bad.And with a Handle like [ovadebarz]I presume you do it a lot.

I rode marin trail instead on Sunday which was epic. Had originally planned of doing full black loop at degla on Sun morning.
Did a 50miler on Saturday evening. Was ace going down the wirral to the back of Chester. Was horrible coming back from Chester with a full headwind all the way. Going downhill pedalling hard to keep 13mph.. :/
