Very well done everyone who took part in our huge Deeside loop, it was truely a great day out on the bikes. Weather was fab and scenery was equally stunning through Aberdeenshire and Perthshire.
A big thank you to Andrew’s family for the excellent lunch and hospitality. Of course the journey was not free from drama with multiple technical issues (exclusive to the committee!).

We will be setting of at 7am from Inchture Hotel please try to be there ontime for quick departure. The ride is estimated to take around 9-10 hours so with stops and lunch break, expect to be back around 6-7pm in the evening. It is a long ride but I’m sure it will be ‘EPIC!”
Be prepaired with clothes / food / spare tubes / tools and your mobile phone. Any questions please ask in the discussion forum.
