oh yeah - we went up on sunday, carrying a 34lb around the lower hills is great exercise.

Couple of photos of typical conditions atm [url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/so-did-a-regular-pentlands-evening-ride-emerge-from-that-one-the-other-week/page/3 ]here[/url]; it's not too bad if you know where the 'higher-use' paths are (compacted snow), but off-path isn't even fun!
