I have opted for tour of Loch Leven, but would be very happy to support the other 2 options.

For a suggestion I recently did a ride round Loch Leven. From Kirkliston the total length was 75 kms. We could meet up at Inverkeithing station and have lunch at the Green Hotel in Kinross or Vane Farm. It's not really on quiet roads but it's not too bad.

Telemark said:Right - 3 choices is enough for a poll ...
There are some route maps around for the 1st two options, anybody care to draw one for the lap of Loch Leven (perhaps including Cleish Hills along the Ed-St Andrews route?)T

I do a similar route quite often but I tend to go through the Cleish Hills to Kinross to avoid the traffic and similary at the south end of the loch, I carry on to Ballingry and go over Benarty Hill.Halfmanhalfbike said:Hope this link works OK to the Loch Leven route

If its the one I thinking off If you can get through to just north of Clackmannan it runs all the way sufaced and off road to the west side of Dunfermline. My prefered route from Stirling to Dunfermline (something like this) through is along the Hillfoot Road to Menstrie or Alva take a right down to the B9140 and through Fishcross, Coalnaughton, right to Saline and along the B914 through Steelend. You can then either follow my route right (south) into Dunfermline or take a left (50 yrds ahead) which takes you straight over the Cleish Hills to Kinross/ Loch Leven.scook94 said:As I've not done the Loch Leven route I opted for that one. Just need to find the cycle path Jane uses to Kincardine so I can get myself from Stirling and I'll be sorted!
i,ve done that cycle path ,well from clackmannan it runs to dunfermline but i just rode to oakley and back as ma wee dug was in at the groomers in clackmannan , its well surfaced but at the time i was on it it was well covered in fallen leaves , would thing it would be fine nowscook94 said:As I've not done the Loch Leven route I opted for that one.

Can you access Bikely? I take this route to avoid traffic but the climb from the North of Inverkeithing to Loch Glow (in the Cleish Hills), especially by the Hospital is a bit steep, although there is a cycle path bail out thereHalfmanhalfbike said:I'm at work just now so MapMyRide is blocked but I'll re-do it later
