MacRetro Rider
Route has now been planned, most of it self evident and thus OS map free, least ways thats the theory.
Starts from the minor road on the south side of the Dreghorn junction of the A720. Follows the trail we finished off on last Sunday until we reach the building at the bottom of the fast descent. We then turn right (westward) and proceed along landrover track until we finally hit a field boundary, probably a wall. Turn right and follow boundary on single track which eventually passes Bonaly reservoir and starts to skirt Capelaw hill.
Follow down trail and fast descent to road where I dinged my wheel rim yesterday. Follow road down toward Flotterstone but then head left up hill on single track toward Castlelaw. Climb to summit of Castlelaw on landrover track and catch breath. Finally descend along fast loose track which eventually becomes the fast descent from yesterday back to Dreghorn. Should be a good mix of trails and climbing with a blistering descent for a finisher
Any interesting tweaks anyone wants to suggest will be considered
Just hope no rain as your pretty exposed on them thar hills
