Castlewellan XC loop
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Had a few blasts around it today, I understan it is the original race loop with a few variations, it's been dramatically improved snce the last time BK and I atempted to ride it.
Anyway, it's bloody brilliant. Fantastic use of a small hill, lots of flowy bits and more techincal than I think most NI XC courses are. Hats off to the builders.
I've seen a few XC race courses here over the year and frankly found most to be little more than CycloX courses, but this course would inspire me to race a few XC events.
Top works, whoever built it.
