How has the weather been like in the UK? Is it going to be a relatively dry course or pretty muddy?

It's not raining today but there's been some heavy rain recently down here and it's not the kind of weather for it to dry out in a rush.

its rained most of the week here in MK. it will run off pretty well at the site but it will still be a little wet.

Well, it's a different take on keeping your feet dry!

Looking at the comments and pictures on social media from some of the riders post practice , it definitely looks muddy out there.

Well that was a pretty amazing day yesterday. A really challenging muddy course and that first corner looked really tricky. Great to see Nikki on the podium and I got some cracking photos from where I was standing.
Also whilst in sad Fanboy mode, it was great to meet Sophie De Boer and Sabrina Stultiens (conveniently dressed in orange)

Brilliant day out, and whilst the Pro's made it look easy, I was glad I didn't have to ride round that course...it looked hard.

Photo's here from both the Men & Women's Elite Races...
