Enjoyed that, going to ride (leisurely) the full loop in September.

Yep me and Stuart did it a couple of weeks ago. Starts off ok but gets trickier at the end. Doesn't help that the gpx appears to be wrong and goes off the faint track and into a heathery wilderness both before and after the scaffold bridge. :sad: :???:
The Bynack More climb is great though. :-bd
