    Pic taken by the 'Bairn' before he went down this drop-looks quite frightening to be sure !!!.

    Re: Mountain Bike Track Laggan

    I think the pic is deceptive, I doubt it's the sheer drop it appears to be. Look at the clump of glass and the shadows for example.

    Re: Mountain Bike Track Laggan

    It never goes wrong actually in the drop, it's trying to keep the back wheel down on entry if you do it at speed. Not the steepness that bothers me there, it's the terrain you might end up planting your face on!

    It can't be that hard, because a small monkey has just ridden a jetski down one handed:
