Unbelievably the forecast is for a dry and warm week, I'm up for making the most of what will no doubt be the closest thing we get to a summer ;)

Who's up for some mid week riding? I can do most nights and as ever, keen to get the big rig out. I'd be up for Ashton Hill one night but also suggest we give Leckhampton Hill a go. Popped in there on the way back from FoD on Saturday and really enjoyed it. It's a good mix of flowy, technical and steep with some nice jumps in there if you fancy them. It's closer to a proper DH run than say A51 or the Clump with one main top to bottom line but a few other options. Got chatting to some guys up there and apparently there's one really steep/techy line that we didn't try, if you're that way inclined. As it's a longer run, it's obviously a longer push up but it's not too unpleasant.

This vid gives you a feel for it:
