Great pics and marvelous looking trail but I would be to shy to ride it.
Doesn't take much size of tyres etc. Go 20 miles and it's still clean then three miles of wet ground and it's filthy again.
Wife and I went out on Monday afternoon. Wasn't especially muddy but when the South Downs chalk gets mixed in with the slop it's a bastard to clean. We did a nice downhill (from the Tumulus to Staple Ash Farm) which was also leaf covered, into the sun. So with the low sun it was difficult to see and also often couldn't see the rain rutted surface under the leaves. I have a screaming wife who doesn't use her brakes.

Wife has the same shock on her Rail. I put a Megneg on it and now it works pretty nicely.
Shock pressure
I've got a rs deluxe plus on my bike. I'm struggling with my shock pressure. I've yet found my pressure at 190psi wich makes the shock feel smooth and soft at 30%sag. When I ride some rougher stuff or practice on some small jumps my shock bottoms out. When I look at the rs suggested pressure I...

Thats old fashioned. Just spray the bike with silicon spray and easy-clean you go.
Not much use on muddy trails, can't stop every few yards and brush the mud off ...
What was or is it going to be
I can confirm that a wire brush might remove that UK Mud. There’s probably a mixture of clay and natural glue included in the dirt.
Simply zip tie three wire brushes to your front forks. (Underside of crown and both forks.) do the same for the rear triangle.

This is mud! Lincolnshire clay soil a few days after rain (so it is sticky not sloppy).
The stays were shaping the mud and I thought that the paint would be stripped off, so I had to stop. If you look carefully, in line with the top tube, there is a stick! And look at the lower jockey!
I cleaned most of that off and got the bike going, only to have to do it again after 200 yards.

I suppose a BBQ grate cleaner could also be used because those are available with nylon brushes now.
I’m currently designing a metal cage which fits over a bread toaster to prevent anyone from shoving a fork or knife into the electrical heating filaments. Should save lives. Must be a metal cage though. (Ask how I know).

OT: I was wondering, why I couldn't see the image, so I tried to download it. It's 7.1 MB!!! This forum apparently won't resize uploaded pics to reduce data usage and bandwidth. So maybe everyone tries to be a little more sensitive to file size.

Put it next to the ferry they have been building in Scotland for a very long time
Didn't they paint the windows on to save time?
That was to save money
Very true!!
