Anyone know much about this and more importantly is it rideable?!?

The route passes right through Lochmaben, which is where I live, so I too have been think the same as you. It has been signposted for a few months now, but there has been no maps or route guides published as of yet. I pass a few different parts of the route when i am out on my "darkside" bike and they look as though they could be rideable once they have been marched upon by a few dozen ramblers. The descent down from the top of the beeftub should be fantastic!!!
I will keep you posted on this subject as and when more info is available.
