Great safe ride. The only downside is that the pedestrians do not always give way that slows one down. Don't think that the ave of 20km/h can be exceeded! We need more dedicated tracks for road cycling. The surface is good too. | ||

Rule 62 of the Highway Code requires us to avoid pedestrians not for them to give way. Use this rule when not on a segregated route. | ||

This was my first long trip. It was very pleasant ride. Managed till Drumoak, then comes the major obstacle, IRVINE ARMS! The owner, a local gent, serves the drink, very friendly. I think from Drumoak it is a single carriage way to Banchory (correct me if I am wrong), so abandoned the trip and took a bus back to Aberdeen. Nice views, pleasant ride till Drumoak. Enjoy!! | ||

Great ride, I could make 23.9 km/h average on that road, but indeed some pedestrians are annoying I could use a football horn and they wouldn't budge, also dogs MUST be on leash. | ||
