Aberfoyle Easy Ride
January 18, 2014 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
I’m planning on heading up to Aberfoyle for a ride on forest roads/easier trails. The pace will be easy, distance probably about 15 – 20 miles, not planning on going up high into the hills. There’s no specific route as of posting this, either Loch Ard forest or Duke’s Pass area.
Meeting at the main car park in Aberfoyle, ready to ride for 10am. I’m also planning a cafe stop at some point (but still take food for the ride, just in case). I’m happy to do some skills practice depending on those present.
If you fancy this then give me a shout (grahamDOTandertonATgmbcDOTorgDOTuk) or post up here.
We had a great ride today, despite the forecast rain turning up about 10:45. New rider Helen, joined Magda, Gillian and myself for a 16km figure-of-8 zoom around the hills near Aberfoyle. The trails were mainly fireroads with a few sections of singletrack joining them up. It was a relatively short ride given the deteriorating weather and we made a B-line for the post-ride cafe to warm up with soup and hot drinks. We all had a fun morning out and it was great to see smiles all around despite the cold, wet weather at the end. Respect to Gillian, Magda & Helen for making the effort!
