Cathkin Braes Commonwealth Games MTB track. Blue, Red, Black - is it Glasgow’s best place for bikes?

Welcome to another track vlog, this time we hit up Cathkin Braes in Glasgow, where they hosted the 2014 Commonwealth Games, on the Mondraker Foxy XR. It’s a short little track with a blue trail which has short red and black sections. It’s not long or overly knarly but it’s great local stomping ground if you have a few hours to spare and ideal for beginner riders getting into the hobby as well as experienced riders who want to practice rock drops / rock gardens / chutes / jumps.
