16m 250521 Tarves Methlick YthanBank Haddo Return

We will be on some main roads and single track roads and there will be a few hills in there so I've marked this ride as challenging, most of them we should be going down but there are a few wee nippy ones too (but we can get off the bike). We will take it easy so don't worry too much, we will all get there when we get there. There will be some double file riding and some single file depending on where we are on the route. It should be mostly a quiet route at the time of night we are heading off. Will will be going parrell to Ythan at some point so we should also have a nice view.

From Tarves Square, towards Barthel Chapel, heading to Methlick, Ythanbank, Haddo and return to Tarves.

We will be riding on both main roads and single track in single and double file depending on where we are at.

There won't be any coffee stops, boo hoo, but we will stop here and there to group everyone together and have a wee blether and a drink of your juice (maybe even a wee chocolate from your pocket).

It would be appreciated if you would wear a helmet, come in brightly coloured clothing and if you have bike lights pop them on. Clothing and lights not essential but good if you have it. If you have a puncture repair take take that too or have in mind someone you can call if you need some help due to a mechanical.

First-timers welcome!
