I think it’s really just a case of with trails that close to a city you are always going to get conflict, it’s the same out in mugdock, the closer you are to milngavie and up at the visitors centre(read the dog walkers and family day trippers) the more you need to slow down. But head out a little further and the place is empty. I’ve never been to CH, but from a quick look on the map, well it’s surrounded, so it’s going to be full of walkers, and some will invariably get upset, I’d take a guess that’s pretty much going to be a constant and very difficult to change in an urban environment. Good luck with it, but the term, pissing in the wind does spring to mind.
