The Innocent Railway and Beyond - Edinburgh Festival of Sport Ride

If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.

This ride is a slight adaptation of our existing Innocent Railway and Beyond route starting at Meadowbank Sports Centre as part of the Edinburgh Festival of Sport. On the day of the ride there will be a huge come and try sports festival at Meadowbank Sports Centre and the Royal Commonwealth Pool (http://www.activcity.info/info/7/festival_of_sport). This ride will follow the line of the old Innocent railway before heading further east into the countryside between Edinburgh & Musselburgh. This ensures an almost flat and traffic free route making it suitable for all cyclists.
