Nice work and perfect timing for me 🙂 I'm off to Dornoch next week, but I only had the cast removed yesterday, after my most recent mishap and the elbow is still rather fragile. So, my usual trips to Balblair etc are probably off the menu. That bimble around Aldie Burn looks like it could be just the ticket though. Thanks.

Is there a printed book due? It wasn't clear on the DMBinS site.

That's not my understanding. I think the original idea was to have it online so that it could be supplemented and amended regularly.

Nice photos on the Corrieyairack pages.... 😳

Why format it as a book then? It would be an easier read as regular website

At the expense of sounding like a dick, I don't like the layout, the YouTube interface for the videos is a mess (setting to landscape on my phone and they just disappear) and there's no sound which is weird on a 5 min video.

The routes are all fairly well established covered in both guide books (that I can carry with me) or on mtb trails website which is a much more usable interface and has more trails including grouping by areas.

It feels as though the effort has been put into a turning page layout than the content. And for the inevitable, if you think you can do it better then go ahead, there's no need a number of people already have.

Maybe so that it prints off like a book if you want to carry it with you? Lots of websites suffer from bad print formatting.

Looks good on my phone, just the right size/scale for it.

Its a good concept and you should just be able to download it as a digital PDF without their app or reader so it's cross platformed easier.

Useful resource though, was planning on doing more natural riding this year so will be used to help plan some Scottish adventures.
