Re: Tracy and Emma and The Hub. It is my understanding that they did not apply to run the new facility.

OK. I see where you're coming from better now. I hadn't appreciated that there was this history - especially given the OP about Carron Valley development.

I guess I was judging FC on what they've done. Fair enough if you want to judge them on what they didn't.

Hope something does come out of this though.

Not sure if the tenders are out yet.

This facility is only partially for MTBrs though.

The Hub is a very good cafe even for non MTBers.

While we're banding about the rumours I was talking to a friend of the old man's who works for Tillhill. Tillhill UPM (forest manager at Llandegla) are a major forest owner/manager in parts of Scotland, and apparently there is some interest in recreating the Llandegla set-up north of the border. Clearly one of the reasons Llandegla is economically viable (and shit) is the huge population catchment it has, so there's limited Tillhill run locations in Scotland that would (maybe) work. But there is an interest at senior level apparently.

In other news VW have just launched a car that runs on fresh air.
