New Route New Start Point!

Starting from the middle of the South Inch Car park next to the Salmon Statue we head on road along Marshall Place and into Craigie. We meander through Craigie following the National Cycle route out to Edinburgh Road. Then its on the Shared Path past Craigclowan School and being careful crossing the road following the Shared path all the way to Bridge of Earn.
We join the road through Bridge of Earn past the Victoria park on the Forgandenny Road before a left for Pitkeathly Wells. Then we have our big climb up to Dron. All of this on quiet country lanes. From Dron it is down back to Bridge of Earn and the reverse using the shared path back into Perth.

The Dron climb will challenge us, but we will stop frequently whenever anyone needs or wants too.

Depending on rider abilities and confidence I may take us down the road to Craigend before we join the path to get us through the Craigend Junction before we rejoin the road at the School entrance.

Come wearing a cycling appropriate helmet and with whatever spares are needed to repair a puncture on your own bike. Don't panic if you have not fixed a puncture as other riders always lend a hand.

Be prepared for a typical Scottish summers evening and dress accordingly or at least bring something with you just in case.
