Looks like temperatures are staying above 0C in the region, similar to England in recent weeks. I've heard that snow has melted in Lithuania, but expect the ground to still be wet and covered in last years' fallen leaves (which had plenty of time to rot too, yuck).
LT: Generally speaking wild camping next to lakes is the way to go. Country guest houses are plenty in the summer, not sure about this time of year. Keywords: rural tourism, kaimo turizmas.
Just found out mosquito forecast is a thing lol. You should be good now. Anyone attempting this in summer beware! -
I change from Whitechapel to Bethnal Green usually, it’s fine. Have to walk up some stairs.
Otherwise, tube from W. to Liv. St., bikes allowed off-peak and weekends. -
Well done!
Here it's best to go through the roundabout (as is in the text sheet).

I solemnly swear to only crash on Badger rides.

Cheers all who responded about Swinley.
Mixed some blue and red trails today, and did a few runs in the downhill zone (not colour marked I think).
Overall it's best to pick and choose your runs, blue and red both have fun sections. It was mostly dry today, more than enough grip.
Definitely not "too rocky" and I wouldn't say there was an excess sharp uphill sections. Just normal XC stuff I guess. -
haha spot on
Glad I missed that poo poo -
Cheers. I heard some mixed feedback about Swinley blue trail - rocky, sudden sharp rises. But as you say it’s our best bet so will try it out.

hey after some advice on bike parks around London. Looking to take friends one weekend to a bike park so they can rent MTBs and have some good times on green/blue/(even red?!) trails.
Should we get to Swinley as early as possible to avoid crowds?
Would prefer trains (and a short ride on city bikes to rental is ok), but could look into car rental. Ta
