   Have to say Glentress. Kirroughtree has the (far) better individual pieces of riding but GT Black is a better trail as a whole. In the future, when people take BScs in trail building, GT black will be case study #1. Japanese exchange students will line the side of the trail, trying to understand the inner narrative of Deliverance (if they don't do so already). Kirro will just be an example of some ace rocky bits that got joined up with some paths.

   I've also only ridden Kirro twice, and loved it, but ridden GT 100 times, and still love it, so I reckon that must count for something.

   Not done them all yet, did some natural stuff in Mabie last night that may change my view over the long term but at the moment I rate them as:-

   1) Kirroughtree
   2) Dalbeattie
   3) Mabie

   We went up at the beggining of May for 3 days, did Dalbeattie, Kirroughtree and AE in that order.

   I would quite happily have done 3 days at Kirroughtree, it was excellent.

   When you all visit kirroughtree and if the weatheris hot like now may I sugest the best part of the day is the swim in the pool just down form the bridge straight after mc moab tis truly magicand can wash away the blood and grit .
   It is a full monty of course
   can any other stane offer such pleasure I think not
   unless you fall off dbt log in the winter floods
