The 'Big Country' route at Glentrool, that is.
Not technical at all, but a great mornings ride and the second half past Loch Dee and Loch Trool has some amazing views.
Makes a nice day out if you combine it with the Green and a few circuits of the Blue.
Anyone else enjoy it?
It can be tied in with the Kirroughtree Black too, they run together for a short distance at the top of Heartbreak Hill.
The bothy half way round's great too.
Could do with the hoover running round the fireplace though.

Only realised this after we looked at the map when we got back to the trail centre.
More mince than a Scotch Pie in the Spanner household at the mo, so we've stuck to the reds and blues tbh.
Last bit of Kirroughtree red/blue is a bit of a stunner isn't it?
Still can't believe that such great trail centres can be so empty during the school holidays.
Most of the people we saw parked up all week seemed to be hikers and dog walkers.

Long way from most places and petrol/diesel is expensive nowadays 🙁
