been there three times there is one large up hill after a long down hill gravel road section you turn leftin to the forest dont stop a the bottom just give it shit and dont stop when you think your at the top cause your not keep going till you have to do the 90deg right ( im sure you can bypass this section) never have but there is also so a good down hill not much further on with a good bog (quad catcher they nearly all get stuck in the 1st dip ) the will make for a pile up but over all it a great ride wet or dry.

I should come out could run a lap or 2

im not really laughing but

If this is the ride I'm thinking off it had quite a few steep parts and while it was only damp in places last year there were a lot of people struggling. Boy those four strokes like blowing steam while they wait to get through the bog! I think its probably going to be canceled with this weather if its the ride I'm thinking off because the majority of people will not get around the same track.

Scott just beat me.

**scott411** · 6th December 2007, 07:18

yes this track is mostly clay bulldozed tracks, and would be extremely tricky in the wet, will kepp you guys informed,

Have fun marking it out Scott! Hope you have good tyres, I guess your using a quad? I'm kind of surprised your even going to bother because the forecast looks terrible. Woodhill could be popular this weekend.
