Cambuslang to Chatelherault and back

As shown but if you want any further clarification, please message me.
Please be aware that we aim for an average speed on the move of 10 – 11 mph. This is not the route for you if you are looking for a much faster road ride.

I describe this route as a leisure ride. We will not be going too fast but we try to maintain a minimum speed on the move of 10 mph. The route aims to avoid busy roads and makes use of designated cycle routes as much as possible. We leave and finish at Cambuslang Park and Ride. The route takes us out to Chatelherault Country Park, going through Uddingston and Strathclyde Country Park, and returning through Hamilton and High Blantyre. You can view the route in detail at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/53807568

We will be using mainly cycle ways and quiet roads. There are some short sections of ‘busier’ roads. And there will be some hills.

The ride heads out to Chatelherault Country Park where we will stop at the café which has toilets.

This is Scotland and as we all know, the weather can be ‘variable’. Please check the forecast before leaving and come prepared. If the weather looks to be really terrible, the ride is likely to be cancelled.

First-timers welcome but please check the anticipated cycle speed.
