There is a marked cycle track from sw end s to Big Water of Fleet, from nearly same start is the forest drive seish to Mossdale, can you join via the dismantled railway or more specifically would it be fun for beginner Ish/non techie ability or are there any other easy tracks that would allow you to loop

Very easy to join on to the dismantled railway line just before you get to the Big Water of Fleet viaduct (cullendoch farmhouse), there is a path/road just to the side of the railway line (as this section is overgrown/waterlogged) but as you progress towards Loch Skerrow/mossdale you can rejoin the railway line and continue on this to Stroan loch/Stroan viaduct then join the Raiders Road forest drive to Clatteringshaws, perfectly rideable for a beginner or non tech rider. The forest drive can sometime get cut-up with the wood lorries especially if there has been heavy rain but at this time of year it should be fine. This route has been well used over the past few years in various events.

Cheers, will add to to do list

There’s some nice stuff around there but fancied that for a nimble with gf

There’s a shop at mossdale that does teas/coffees etc to break up the loop
