And me! 4 of us started off at Ae on Friday, then Kirroughtree on Saturday and finished off at Dalbeatie today.
Cracking week-end. To be repeated Easter week-end, with Drumlanrig, Mabie, Kirroughtree then two more to make our minds up on when we get there. ๐Ÿ˜€

I was out at Mabie on Fri afternoon but ride was cut short by a ripped tyre sidewall followed by a thorn causing another puncture on the ride home ๐Ÿ™„

Want to go off piste on OS78 for a natural ride?

Or add the coastal path to Dalbeatte?

Whereabouts is that top pic Trekster? I went off-piste with John (one of the Mabie designers) years ago, but don't recall seeing anything like that.

The first pic is way up in the bowls of the Lowthers, Enterkin Burn descent from the Wanlockhead radar station.
