Dumyat Sunday Ride

October 6, 2013 @ 10:30 am - 3:30 pm

  • Where:  Bridge of Allan train station car park – accessible from Glasgow without a car in this case.
  • When: 10:30am
  • What to expect:  Fairly stiff climbing to start with, woodland singletrack heading up on to Dumyat.  Could be a bit breezy on top.  Parts of the route could be wet with the recent rain but large chunks of the ride are through woodland so should be a bit drier and sheltered.  Dumyat is classic Scottish mountain biking; open moorland, some steep/rocky sections up top and big views (hopefully, if the forecasted light rain clears).  After the climb there’s a fun descent (steep in places, flowy in others) and a singletrack ride to an awesone cafe stop.

After lunch/cake we’ll climb part way back up to take in some more woodland singletrack before descending back to Bridge of Allan for:

  • ice cream
  • chips
  • beer
  • banter
  • all of the above

Distance probably about 30km, duration:  4-5 hours including stops.  If you can’t stay for the full ride there are various options to bail out.  As usual; no helment, no ride.
