7Stanes CIC closed down in March or so and "taken over" by the [url= http://scotland.forestry.gov.uk/activities/mountain-biking/7stanes ]FCS[/url]. Best bet is to check out the Tweed Valley Bike Patrol [url= http://tweedvalleybikepatrol.org/ ]website [/url]and FB page for updates or give [url= http://www.tiso.com/shops/innerleithen ]Alpine Bikes[/url] a ring.

It's all here:
http://scotland.forestry.gov.uk/activities/mountain-biking/7stanes
I [i]think[/i] the closures updates were run by the FCS anyway so it's just a different outlet for the same info. Not as clear on this website though, the info's pretty spread out so the twitter sidebar's generally the best bet. And you need to read between the lines a bit for the non-trailcentre forests.

No major closures at GT or Innerleithen right now though so there's not that much info to find, just some minor race closures

Buzzards nest not closed?

With the recent spell of amazing weather, riding conditions have been second to none in the valley, possibly a tad too dusty, i missed the last good week due to a pulled muscle, but had a good solid weeks worth of riding, with some new discoveries, Thornielee blew my mind, for some reason i really like the climb to the top of the three Bretheren, the expansive view possibly and Who ever put the time and effort in on Flat White thank you, a great bit of trail.

The Buzzard's Nest certainly wasn't closed this weekend past.
