Dollar, Tilly, Sauchie, Alva loop

We head out along the cycle path to Tilly and then head up towards Fishcross with hopefully lovely views of the hills. We never know what animals we might encounter in the farmyard we pass through, but it's always fun. Then we pass Sauchie Tower and on to the road past the Woodsman and down to Alva. Here we pick up the cycle path back to Tilly and along the old railway line back to Dollar. Its a lovely, local loop with very little in the way of uphill.

A gentle 10.5 mile loop from Dollar to Fishcross and Alva.

We will be mostly on off road tarmac, with a stretch of main road from Fishcross down to Alva past the Woodman Restaurant. It is generally pretty flat with just a couple of uphill sections up to Fishcross

We can stop wherever we fancy for photos, a drink etc but no planned cafe stop en route. If folk fancy we can nip in for a coffee at Cafe 44 afterwards

Wear a helmet and please have lights on your bike and bright clothing is always wise. You should also have a spare inner tube that fits your wheels and the relevant tools, but I can also try to help with basic roadside repairs, if necessary. Bring a water bottle and snack too

We never leave anyone behind
