Has anyone been down to Drumlanrig this week?
If so, what are the Trail conditions like?

TIA

Davy-g - I'd loved to have joined in too. I was meant to be biking with Trekster today but I had a lousy night with a pretty sore throat, so thought better of it. Have a good one.

Bump. Any word on conditions there? I suspect it is better than GT or the Pentlands for tomorrow. Anyone there today? Rik?

Although it is freezing and roads are icy there has been only a dusting of snow here yesterday in Dumfries. Would expect Drum and the Stanes to be rock hard, riding fast ๐Ÿ˜† needless to say but beware icy patches and enjoy.
Just been into town and back on the road bike and it is Baltic, wrap up warm ๐Ÿ’ก

we are going tonight, conditions are fine, there has been very little snow and the trails are hardened with the frost, its ridding as good as a dry summers day (except its bloody freezin) Doing it at night is even better, I think we are also doing a Hogmanay ride as well!

All riding well today. A few folks away out on some crisp and crunchy snow covered trails. Very, very picturesque.

Don't forget to bring a sledge if you have one, the slope in front of the castle is excellent!
