Cool beans. I've bought me a pair of Salomon XA Pro 3D XCR which have performed beautifully when I have managed to take them cross country. I'm still trying to get them proper muddy though so I at least don't look like a total novice

Love the South Downs! Particularly Harting Down so I'll be out there before long do doubt. Spent the weekend camping in East Dean so got in a wee bit of country trail - loved it!

Getting all excited about the good weather now.
