After hitting Tarland 2 just after opening day, I have been itching to get back and ride it again!

I was particularly keen to try and clean the black jump line “fools gold” which I was pretty sure I could manage with a bit more bravery than I had previously had.

I also thought that this would be the perfect location to have a well overdue Patreon group ride, as this place really does cater to all abilities.

The resulting day was fantastic, and a whole load of fun👌
