Rare foray to Gisburn on Saturday morning... Just wanted to check that none of the trail is closed off for repairs etc?

Got a couple if mates driving up and if it's closed I'll be feeling pretty silly.

At most only a short section of blue/red near the end, all of the main bits are open.

Thanks Martin, was having a sudden panic. Don't suppose you know whether a cafe has opened up there yet?

Cafe open on Friday and Saturday, I believe. Very nice cake too.

They may even have opened the loo block by now. It's almost like Lancashire is joining the civilised world. ๐Ÿ™‚

Yes toilets are open.
Take a towel because you'll get wet, some major puddles in the trails.

Yep, as mentioned just the short red/blue at the end(which actually has some nice swoopy bits).

You might not feel like riding straight down after you've done School Lane climb in the middle, but make sure you do the Hope Line a couple of times - it's great fun. Though be careful on the jumps at the bottom, [s]though lack of ability [/s]because they lined them up wrong [s]I [/s]some people have had some big offs.
