do the road bit first, and get it over with. nothing worse than coming off the mountain and realising you have a drag along the road for a locka miles. should make for a nice close to the day, zooming down cave hill. good luck!

i'm gonna do as little road as possible.
if i start at the castle, up the fireroad to hightown road and then hit the bit of road to go behind Squires Hill and the road to connect to the Quarry/Wolf Hill.
Then do the boundary loop of Divis and back the way i came.

think that would keep the road work to a minimum (unless i'm reading the maps wrong).

sounds like a fine plan and a jolly good idea, mister, as the road is a complete DOSE!!
