bloody tree hugging, law abiding, risk averting FC probably asked for that.  A known challenage = a known danger spot = a known risk = a potential liability = removal of said challenge.   

On the upside, I may be able to right through it without going over the bars or mincing too badly.   Good times.

I wouldn't worry too much about it to much, rain and riders will soon re-establish those ruts.

Having never done a Dragons uplift, we're going to this one, have had a look on thier site, but need to clarify a couple of things that I couldn't find.

What time do they usually run from/to? And is there some sort of central meeting point to wait for the uplift? Reading the directions, it sounds like they don't have the luxury of a nice big carpark like Cwmcarn....

Ta muchly!
