Snowy Exmoor Long distance trial.
Permalink  

There were a lot of riders out and about on Exmoor today, competing in the Neil Westcott Long distance trial. There were some pretty harsh conditions up here, with many roads still covered in frozen snow. I guess the dirt sections may have not been so bad, but well done to anyone who entered. I really didn't envy them out there today!

If it was anything like down in the South Hams it was -2, sheet ice everywhere and even the mud was frozen! The tyres would not cut through as normal, very tricky indeed! A good, different day out!! ;o)
