[Closed] Glentress Black

Just an update after I did the black on Friday for the first time. I had obviously made the distance seem much greater in my mind. Don't get me wrong, I was on the haribo after the Redemption climb and I was tired by the end, but it was nowhere as difficult as I was expecting. I had to push two sections on the uphill because it was just too steep and I had to walk one of the log drop offs on The Bitch because I bottled it. I'm glad that I did it on a full sus as it's a fairly rough ride on some sections. Overall, I was slightly disappointed. The smiles per miles ratio was very low in comparison to the red. I'm thinking of maybe doing a mix of red and black next time I'm there.
