Reviews for The Twister Trail - Kirroughtree

Summary:
Great XC route, with good balance of uphills and downhills

Review:
I did just the red grade Twister trail, on my own, during a Holiday in June 07. I thought it was good, but couldn't quite see what all the Kirroughtree fuss was about.

However, I just recently did the whole Twister/Black Craigs circuit with a bunch of friends and the whole route was fantastic. It keeps you grinning all the way round. Nearly every section is well constructed and hasn't deteriorated. It's big bonus, is the fact that you never feel like there have been any killer climbs, yet there are loads of long descents. They make the best use of the gradients.

I'm giving the red Twister route only, an 8, but that is only because it's a bit short on it's own.
However, The Whole red/black Twister/Black Craigs circuit would score a 10 for me. It is definitely worth the extra driving distance.
