Bike Type You probably don’t want to drag your road bike across bumpy trails. Maybe you want to make the most of the suspension on your mountain bike. This helps you match your ride to your bike.

Meet the Ride Leaders

  • David Glover I am a keen road cyclist and mountainbiker with a background in working with people with disabilities.

    I firmly believe that riding bikes can be enjoyed by everyone and has great power to enhance peoples health and lives in general.

    I look forward to meeting lots of new people and supporting them to enjoy riding bikes!
  • Philip Campbell As a youngster I loved the freedom that cycling gave me and cycled everywhere. Sadly this was lost as I grew up, qualified as an architect and got busier and busier. 4 years ago I rediscovered cycling and made more time to get out on my bike. I'm so glad I did - I'm fitter, a good bit leaner and love nothing better than getting out cycling to stretch the legs, have a bit of banter and discover some more of the delights of the Scottish landscape together.
