EVENT DETAILS
Join Rosie for a relaxed cycle around some of the stunning landscape on roads and tracks near Lintrathen. Visit an impressive waterfall, have a picnic lunch by a loch and hopefully see lots of wildlife. Suitable for those who can ride a bike with a basic level of fitness. There are a few hills to navigate – but there is no rush, we can take our time for breathers. The route will involve riding on quiet roads and tracks so bright clothes and a helmet are recommended.
