Innerleithan today. FC have closed half of the climb with a diversion up a vertical mud fest that has to be hiked for about 2k – until the end of June! It joins at last part of Minch Moor climb (which has a foot of snow and is a hike as well). FC had spooky on red and deliverance on black closed for 6 months last year. Glad I live close. Feel sorry for people who travel for a biking weekend only to find closed trails. Shame FC dont put any effort into diversions.
The Inners climb is about 400m and ridable, just misses out the STW climb. You still get the full descent.
Spooky was shut a while, true and so was Deliverence but its diversion was fun and full-on.
