Nail Trail is a lovely, very long, bit of singletrack that runs from the Riggs Rd down into Balerno. The start is a bit tricky to find (it's a plank across a ditch) but at night it's my favourite bit of trail in the Pentlands.

The Chocolate Chute is a short, steep, rooty section between the Lymphoy Rd and the Water of Leith path.

Epicsteve, yeah, that was almost certainly us. We took the track round the north side of Harbour Hill to the top of Maidens.

I had a great time last night, thanks everybody. Just about makes up for the fact that my other bike was stolen from my shed last night, glad I left the Tinbred in the van over night. The missing one is an Orange E6 fully rigid singlespeed (who the **** would want to steal that) that has seen a lot of use and abuse. It is much missed already. If you could your eyes peeled evrybody, thanks. Steven

Cool, cheers Kennyp, I'll have a look next time I'm out instead of coming down poet's glen. I think I know where Chocolate Chute is from your description, if it's the same bit I'm thinking of it's very nice indeed.
