Weekend jaunt to Dumfries for some 7 Stanes fix

A couple of us (JB & CT) grabbed an opportunity to ride some of the 7 Stanes over the BH weekend, thanks to our better half's;). We managed Dalebattie on Saturday, Kirroughtree Sunday and Mabie on Monday on the way home:)
No big news, Dalbeattie now has facilities, but Kirroughtree has a grand new visitor centre, cafe and bike shop, Mabie has a great middle section, berm and jump-tastic, but the cafe was closed:(
A few pictures below:
So we did...
Guess where...
Nice, thanks to Vince at the Lovely Ashley Down brewery:)
The New Kirroughtree visitor centre
It had been raining
McMoab slab, BH weekend and no one about!
Wood pile picnic and very quiet
The new wheel at the end of the ride back into the visitors complex, showers and everything!
why not!
Bike shop & hire
Cafe with indoor and outdoor seating
View from the cottage with the Cumbria mountains in the distance:)
Yes it's a red one!
Bluebell wood at Mabie.
Next ride: Thursday 28th May = Clappersgate
