We will meet at Cockenzie Harbour and follow the Waggonway shared path then the Heugh which is also a shared cycle / pedestrian path to Tranent. From here we will turn right onto Elphinstone Road which we will follow, turning left through housing to reach the cycle/ pedestrian shared pavement which runs alongside Ormiston Road. Once we reach the bridge we will then join the shared railway path which we will follow to the end. We will then join the B6368 until we reach Humbie Hub.
We will stop at Humbie Hub for lunch and refreshments.
We will then return on quiet roads via East Saltoun and Pencaitland to Cockenzie Harbour.

The Railway path is a hard packed surface, it does however get muddy on occasion, depending on recent weather, so is suitable for Mountain bikes,Gravel bikes and Hybrids. We will however be riding on roads for our return. This ride is a mixture of shared paths, railway walks and roads. If your not sure if your bike is suitable send me a message and we can have a chat about it.

This route is challenging and uphill. There will be the opportunity to stop to take photos or breaks as and when required on the day by the Ride Leader. We will stop for lunch and refreshments at Humbie Hub Cafe before returning to Cockenzie.

Helmets must fit and be worn correctly, lights are advised, be bright and be seen! Please wear clothes appropriate for the weather, bring a drink, spare inner tube and pump if you have one and the means to get home if your bike breaks down. We will be stopping for lunch / refreshments so please bring a form of payment and a lock for your bike. Ebikes are welcome and we never leave anyone behind!
