Re: East Coast Rides Thread

Unfortunately I'm leading a large group of Edinburgh MTB'rs around Velo's Trails this Sunday. I just dont seem to be able to get to your Trails Clubby, its almost as if your on the bit of the map labelled 'Here be monsters' and I'm subconciously feared to go there. I will ride Clubby Trails in 2014 !

Templeton is opening this weekend clubby so I'll be at that on Saturday - are you going to the Ambta film night?

Re: East Coast Rides Thread

Hadn't seen anything about it TK, to be honest I haven't really followed it for a while.
What's happened at Templeton?
Working Saturday, hence trying to sort something for Sunday.

Re: East Coast Rides Thread

Are these trails effectively like the trails in Glasgow at Pollock and Alexandria Park, short skills taster mini circuit ?

There is plans for something similar in Edinburgh I believe.

Gone are the days when you just got out on your bike and explored the paths/tracks as we did bitd :roll:
It all has to be handed to you ready sculpted and planned with a convenient car park. Not that there's anything wrong with that mind, I do like a trail centre style run as much as the next person
But riding down a staircase dodging some old ladies prize Spaniel and playing tree slalom on an avenue was just as good fun

Yes a small skills loop type area, gone are the brick piles with a sheet of osb to ride over
