For our ride this coming Saturday (14th), Yaz will be leading us to South Queensferry. This is a
familiar destination for most of us, but this time Yaz has cleverly
managed to
find a couple of interesting variations to the route, which should make
for variety.
The total distance will be just under 20 miles. The route will be mainly
(but not entirely) away from traffic and mainly (but non entirely) on
well-surfaced paths and roads. I can't promise that it will be flat, but
at least the hills will all be reasonably gentle.
Lunch
With the closure of two of the cafes in South Queensferry last year, the
choice of lunch venue isn't as good as it once was. The Little Bakery
and the Ferry Tap both serve light meals, but they tend to be busy at
times and therefore the service is often slow. Many of us prefer to
bring a packed lunch, and there is a nice picnic spot where we can eat it,
overlooking
the Forth. Another option would be to pick up a sandwich at the co-op,
which is fairly close to our stopping point. There is also a shop nearby
that does take-away tea and coffee.
Logistics
As always, we'll gather at the top
of Middle Meadow Walk in time for a 10:30 departure. We'll aim to get
back to the Meadows around the middle of the afternoon.
