Heading north next week - I see they've opened Glencoe for biking.
Anyone been on this track? Worthwhile? I'm scared of the big DH run but is this a decent alternative for those slightly less gnarly riderz?
Have a look on their facebook or blog and there are a few photos. Its a bit of a work in progress so don't get your hopes up though I expect they'll do some work to it before the MacAvalanche later this month.

Not from what I've heard. IIRC it makes Dunkeld look tame 😯

You mean the weasel track is hard?
The Weasel Track is NOT the Black downhill route which looks extreme. It is a more leisurely XC ride. However I have no information if it is open. Look up the resort number and phone them!!
Uplift is certainly open - and I know the DH is extreme - just wondering how extreme the Weasel is. Will find out and report back soonest!
OoPs, wrong end of stick. Sorry.
I wrote a wee bit on it here [url= http://glencoeindependenthostel.blogspot.com/2010/06/glencoe-mountain-resort-too-much-to-do.html ]Weasel Track[/url]
I enjoyed it. If you're in the area go for it but I wouldn't make a specific trip for it.
