Our longest ride of the year will be to Edinburgh via Bathgate. Previously, we have done rides to Edinburgh starting in Airdrie, but this one will be cycling all the way. We will set out via the East End of Glasgow, climb steadily up to Coatbridge and Airdrie, and then join the railway path to Bathgate.

On Sunday 07 June, 5 of us set off on our ride to the sea. Out through Govan on roads some of which were new to us and then we joined the cycle route as we got nearer to Paisley. The rain started just short of Lochwinnoch, making it a good time to get into the cafe.

This ride will follow an old favourite route – the Strathblane Railway Path. We will leave through North Glasgow and Bishopbriggs to join the Forth & Clyde Canal to Kirkintilloch.
Yes, it was just about that bad. Beautifully sunny before we left home, a bit dull on the way to meet up and then ……
We will head out of Glasgow towards the airport, then join the cycle route to Inchinnan.
Just six of us set off on a rainy day – the official first day of spring, for a journey to the north -east of the city. Yet again, there was somewhere new for each of us.
