Innerleithen Cross Country Route plus a bit more

Today we went to Innerleithen for a change of scenery and did the cross country route plus a bit more that is done on the Selkirk Merida course. This involves three big climbs, some very technical descents down through the forest on little used tracks and some fast descending on the man-made singletrack. Though there had been a lot of rain yesterday on the whole the ground was reasonable and we managed 28 miles in 3 hours 20 minutes. The new Trek performed so well again I'm beginning to think it's maybe the rider who's getting better!!!
