    More Mud than Sense! More local lanes.

    It was clean!


    They all start OK.


    Then get sticky/slippery


    With some fab ruts


    No stand required


    (Went down and back up that one! Its a bit harder up hill.)

    But some are more gentle.


    But still have the odd problem to get over.


    A classic UCR - good for going too fast.


    Another good "road"


    And the bike stayed clean


    In total I did about 50 miles of roads, probably about 15 miles of that being green lanes. We don't have a lot, but what we do have is really good value.

    I think I'll stick to sand and peat - that mud stuff looks sticky!

    Good on yer mate, keeping the muddy end upright PHANNAR.
