Dropping by Kielder on the way south on Monday so will have time for one trail only. Which should it be?

the whole thing! It's not that long.
FWIW Kielder is not on the way ANYwhere. start at the bottom, climb all the way to the radar station & do the whole red descent & take in the black bit at the end ๐Ÿ™‚ or if you are short on time drop the climb to the radar station & turn right where the radar descent crosses the access track.

so in summary do ALL of it - unless you are a jey who dislikes rocky drops, in which case go & do the red route at Newcastleton.
Newcastleton is more like a welsh red - smooth & flowy singletrack pretty cool. esp. for a XC type hardtail, but not "G-narly". my 11yr old loved it ๐Ÿ˜‰
