Innerleithen is an official trail centre ("Innerleithen Bike Park") with XC and downhill trails, part of the 7 Stanes.
Most mountain bikers referring to "Innerleithen" mean these trails. There are a couple of other areas including the "Golfie" all within a few minutes pedal. You can pedal between here and Glentress on a disused railway line in about 20 minutes. There are lots of unofficial enduro trails and marked DH trails.
The XC route is clearly marked, red only, though the final descent is black. Ignore most of those trails, use the climbs to get you to the good stuff, maybe ride Caddon Bank now and again. Things have moved on and everyone loves Angry Sheep!
There are no facilities in the car park, but there is an excellent bike shop (I-Cycles), public toilets, a Co-Op supermarket and a couple of great cafe's a couple of minutes from the trails. There's a free-standing GreaseMonkeyCycles.com bike stand outside the Co-Op, which is just across the road from I-Cycles. If you can't fix it outside the Co-op, standard price for quick and simple repairs at I-Cycles seems to be £10 and they have a coffee machine and a friendly dog!
Adrenalin Uplift who run the uplifts is a bit of a side project for an ATOL company who run ski holidays. They have holiday package deals, guides, accomadation etc. They have a tie in with I-Cycles so if you break your bike on an uplift day you get priority in the workshop.
Innerleithen is home to Findra Clothing, there are also some great pubs, an award winning Indian restaurant and plenty of great places to stay.
