Hi all

After a few years out of the DH scene, I've lost track of what tracks are around, other than the oldies. I've been riding at Granton a fair bit, but its now getting too slippery for a fun Sunday hoon... I've read the thread below about what tracks are hot, and have heard a littel bit about Eildon, and thought it would be go to go and have a look this weekend, but have never been there so if anyone could help me with direction, it would be HUGELY appreciated!

:)

well if you are in town you can take the road to the eildon boat harbour then make your way to the look out. once you are at the look out there is a dirt/gravel road that will take you up the mountain. the is a gate on the way up maybe 500m. which will lead you to the telecom tower. you will either have to get off and walk your bike all the way up which is only about 200m or if you have a 4wd you can make you way around the gate where there is a track.
once you are at the bottom there is another road that can take you to the top.

if you are in town you can see the tower which is at the top of the hill. basically get to the tower you get to the track good luck.

the track is in good condition and is nice fast and flowy. :D
