Have they sorted out the ridiculously large aggregate they had surfaced it with?
POSTED 40 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST
Most of Ae was “as dug”. ie little or no surfacing when built in ’03 ish. Ae was the last trail to be built by the D&G team and suffered from a dwindling, non existent budget and was completed in a rush to comply with the Euro funding contract ! Now that some of the “rough” bits are slowly but surely being surfaced/repaired or re-routed (some) people are complaining it is too smooth 🙄
If as much effort could be directed to the D&G Stanes as there is expended at GT/Inners we could all be happy riders. That I am afraid is an age old debate unlikely to change soon 😕 There would appear to be no money it will to do much about it.
Only this weekend a volunteer group have been smoothing out some of the rough stuff in Dalbeattie in preparation for the Hardrock Challenge. We did the same last year and were accused by some of creating a “motorway” 🙄
