I have ridden it twice now and enjoyed it more the second time,its not a brilliant trail but the techy bits are nice to ride and rewarding to clean if possible.
Exactly how I feel about it!. First time, I was expecting something completely different, a problem I think most people who don't rate it have. Last week, I knew what to expect, and also rode it on a full suss this time,which [i]definitley[/i] helps!.
The trees down at the end are a bugger to get round, as they are huge multi-trunked things, no way over or through them. Adds a good 20 minutes onto the ride.
The loop over from Glencoe is a cracking day out, and has 3 cracking descents, The Ciaran Path itself, The Devils' Staircase and in my opinion the best of the 3 - The descent on the WHW from the top of the Staircase all the way down to the Blackwater Dam Conduit.
It's all good!.

Out of interest - what were you expecting?

damn straight! 🙂
I dunno, was about 6 years ago, when I hadn't done too much rocky stuff, I probably didn't realise how hard work the descent would be, especially on a hardtail. Which I accept was entirely down to me!.
I've not read the thread, but it seems to me the stquestion would never have been asked before trail centres.
