Scotland : Stirling & The Trossachs Stirling - Callander - dukes pass

[Telemark]

Thanks @Louch , that looks like an excellent route , haven't been that way on a bike for a while ...
Can't see the route going over Duke's pass though? (not complaining, just saying like )
It might be best to stay low if this forecast can be believed

Your route seems to be mostly on A roads, @tug benson?
How about a mix of the two routes? I quite like @Louch's quieter roads, especially near Stirling ... with an (optional) Duke's Pass loop for adding on from your approx. 14 mile point ... just my 2p

I see, does that come recommended?

... could always carry on across the A811 after a good refuelling stop, onto the B road through Fintry and via Loch Carron, to avoid A roads on the way back to Stirling

The only busy A roads are the roads close to stirling, the A84 and the A811 the rest are not very busy

Ah ok, looking at your map I have confused what part of the evans route is the dukes pass.

Weather does look showery. Won't be offended by anyone deciding against joining me

Sorry chaps, sitting this one out for reasons.

Everything alright ed? you seem to have pulled out of every ride at the same time.

@Edwardoka, whatever it is, hope you can get it sorted

 

[Rasmus]

Unless something dramatic happens with the weather forecast , I will not be going for a ride tomorrow.

 

[tug benson]

Am the same rasmus, it will not be a good day for cycling, windy and wet...I'll be staying local and maybe only doing a small ride..

Sunday looks better and next week looks even better weather wise

After 18 miles of running over last 3 days I'm cycling this weekend one way or another
