TIME: Meet at 9.45 a.m. for a 10.00 a.m. start. 3½ hour leisurely cycle ride including rests & a coffee break.

STARTING POINT: Ainslie Park Leisure Centre (near entrance), 92 Pilton Dr, Edinburgh EH5 2HF.

ROUTE SUMMARY:This ride offers a relaxed cycle, largely away from traffic exploring places of interest on the west of the city.

DISTANCE: Approximately 11 miles.

DETAILS: Looking for a Mini Break, but haven't a long weekend to spare. After this short ride you'll feel you have escaped to the country for a good rest. We'll cycle along a section of the North Edinburgh Path Network (part of which is formerly the Roseburn - Leith old rail path), then head west, towards Barnton and Cramond. Country Parks, Golf, Sailing, Fly Fishing - it's all there to see. We'll enjoy the great outdoors before resting at one of our favourite coffee stops - the splendid Cramond Boat Club. From here we'll cycle along the esplanade & back to Ainslie Park.
