Very dry and loose, most descents have lots of loose gravel which can get sketchy. Definitely more of a black trail

Ride with caution- there were a number of short pieces of fencing wire littered along the main line, presumably* broken from surrounding derelict fencing. Very saturated and boggy ground in sections, as normal for time of year.
