Really good blog, I like the way you write! Also noticed about people checking out each others bikes, funny isn't it! I am new to mtb'ing and at first I wasn't perving, but now I'm so curious to see what everyone else is riding after spending *so* long researching and trying to decide on my current bike. I don't notice people checking out my shoes when I'm walking so I'm guessing its mainly a bike thang. Keep up the good work, and the pictures of cake are superb! From a fellow cake & mountain bike lover. =) Hey! Really good blog, I like the way you write!

I'm always torn over whether I'd be better in a group or on my own - I often feel a bit self-conscious trying out trickier stuff when people are about, in case I fall off and make a tit of myself. But on the other hand, more experienced people could give me pointers, and scrape me off the floor and call 999 if it does go horribly wrong! I didn't know about Innerleithen being regraded, I'm sure we checked before we left and it was black? Is it a recent change, or did we just read some old information? I was also interested to read on your site about the plans to expand the trails at Innerleithen (complete with chairlift!) - I hope they go ahead! We'd definitely have to have two weeks there then!

My wife's confidence has grown hugely since riding with a local ladies group called the Curly Trails - if you're ever up in the area again they might be worth a shout because they run a very supportive (22 strong) ladies club with coaching whcih I think is open to visitors. And I think Innerleithen's now regraded as a red with some black alternatives. ;-) Looks like you had a nice trip.
