Euan don't do it. The site doesn't need taking on. It's fine as it is.

It was up down up down up down as we just made up our own route rather than just stick to one official trail, tried to mix it up a bit for Kirky, top day and to top it off the sun was as hot as the riding. :-)

Sounds great Chopper - can't beat a bit of local knowledge - it's great to ride with blokes like you, Glynnsixo and iRide who know their area well. Can't buy that knowledge!
