Loved it! Chose a day with perfect weather for it. Really tranquil, wholesome day out, and some lovely places to explore en route. Would do this again for sure, and would recommend to anyone looking for a quieter day exploring in nature. The staff (Rin and Leo) who transported me from A to B were also lovely too.

Great bikes - comfortable and well set up, crew were friendly and helpful, trail has plenty of things to pop in and enjoy, don’t miss the Margaret Olley Gallery…and the icecream and cheese at the Tweed Valley Dairy
