Starting from balgreen tram stop we will join the water of leith path along to the canal and head out to the bridge inn at ratho where we will stop for an early lunch or if you prefer just a drink. From there we will join quiet roads to gogarburn and on to the gyle shopping centre and home on quiet roads. This is a mostly flat route and we will go at a steady pace although no-one will be left behind. Please note that you will have to take your bike up some steep steps to join the canal path. This ride is most suited to hybrid bikes, mountain bikes if you are happy with distance and road bikes are ok if you are confident on some cobblestones/rougher path.

This is a special ride for Sophie, one of our Breeze Ladies prior to her moving to London. This is one of Sophie's favourite routes.

We will be on the Water of Leith Path, the Canal Path and mainly quiet roads.

We will stop for an early lunch at the Bridge Inn, Ratho and might even try their famous onion rings!

Bring money for our lunch stop

We never leave anyone behind
