I’ve never ridden the trail, although it was on the bucket list, but have walked it several times and it certainly didn’t need improving. Seems much like the the work done on many upland footpaths in the name of erosion protection, horrible to walk on so most people walk beside them and make the erosion worse. I wonder if rock climbs will be next, all improved by chipping nice big hand holds so everyone can have a go!

Just makes it easier to get to the cheeky stuff 🙂
