Haven't seen you for a while although I pass the bottom of your garden at least once a week - where you been hiding?

Yeah, I've been mostly getting out solo, early in the mornings, including at the weekends. It's been a while since I've been out on a Tuesday run, should try again soon, but stuff just needs doing before the wedding I guess....;)

back on thread...

I did have a scout about to see if I could link a trail from the top of rosies to the view point over Craigallian Loch, but the rhodies got in the way....:(

Pistola give us a shout if you need some more bodies for trail building.

It's worthwhile remembering we only clear trails that exist, but have become overgrown.

quite what the difference is between a trail and a 'oh a deer may have wandered this way' mark on the ground I'm not sure ๐Ÿ˜‰

I'd be keen to lend a hand too!

As far as clearing only goes, there are sections where you can still see the old trails. It might be possible that the bulk of their length still exists beneath all the branches lying around.

ally - me and Pete were talking about that last night while going up past the Loch - reckon that as you say, clearing the surface brash type stuff should expose a lot of the underlying stuff.

missed the GMBC ride tonight as knackered from a blast up the Whangie yesterday, but it was worth it -)
