Summary

The old peat roads near Killin still visible, and one used for motorcycle trials.

The old peat roads near Killin are still [1964] visible. They went high up, where the peat-hags [peat workings] were. On one occasion a noted local motorcycle trialist chose one of the peat roads for a trial. It was very rough and only about three riders managed it.
