Re:

Still not replied to the guy but he just said he's hopeful he'll be in there in the afternoon after his boy's football.
So nowt definite. :facepalm:

I'm easy. Happy to play it by ear. Curious to see how well he knows the trails, God knows it took us long enough to find what we have.

Re:

I've asked him what time he will be there and he's said it would be after 2pm. Do you think we could get 2 or 3 hours at Cambusbarron then shoot over to Blairadam for 2ish to meet him? Or is that way too ambitious going by our usual antics? I've said I'll ask you guys then get back to him later.

This was an earlier reply he made to someone else when asked about race route,

"Yeah, I was speaking with Brandon last night,

Ive only really started scoping out possible routes over the last couple of weeks, Brandon noticed there are signs up from the fc stating to keep off certain trails, this has nothing to do with the sxc route, they are resurfacing the paths in between the mtb trails and are worried we come bombing out into them or there machinery,

Hopefully meet up with some of you guys on the Sunday and get the ball rolling, will be good to get you on board, Blair Adam has a lot of potential and with the FC giving us the blessing to cut in new trails and provide help and materials this can only benefit us local riders"

Re:

to ambitious mate, cambusbarron is full day to really enjoy and explore it, wouldna want to do it half arsed.

Think it would be a good idea to keep your legs for later in afternoon when this guy turns up.
Will reply we'll meet him in bottom car park for whenever after 2pm that's he's able to get there for. He did say his boy was playing football so he couldn't get there earlier.

Better bring a picnic. :mrgreen:

Keith, I'll skip the 9 miles, that's an extra 30 minutes in my pit!

Should be good tomorrow, trails seems to have dried out nicely round here.
