Our ride this Saturday will be to the south west of the city, and will
include a short visit to Malleney Gardens (famous for its 400 year-old yew
trees) and the nature reserve at Red Moss. Most of the route will be on paths
and quiet roads. There will be a steep climb up to Red Moss, but no other
serious hills or difficulties. Logan will be leading us.
For our lunch break, we'll aim for Balerno, where food is available at the
pub and the community café. Depending on our arrival time, it might also be
possible to buy food for a picnic from the farmers' market (but not if we get
delayed).
The arrangements
The arrangements are as constant as the northern star. We meet at the north
end of Middle Meadow Walk, in time for a 10.30 departure. The ride is free and
open to all, with no need to book.
We can't say for sure what time the ride will end. It's likely to be between
3.00 and 4.00 pm, but it might be a little earlier or later.
